Redondo Beach, WA
CATEGORY 2
WHAT
No risk of coastal flooding anticipated. Even though the maximum tide could reach around 19.4 ft in the evening, barometric pressure remains above critical low thresholds, and NOAA indicates a very low flood likelihood (0%).
WHEN
Highest tide near 9:00 PM to 10:00 PM on 07/01.
IMPACTS
No flooding is expected. No property damage or roadway inundation is anticipated.
• Historical comparison: Category 3 or higher events typically involve lower barometric pressures (closer to or below 992.8 hPa) and tides above 20 ft. Current data shows barometric pressures around 998.9 to 1001.4 hPa, above that critical mark.
• NOAA Flood Likelihood for 2025-07-01 is 0.0%, which aligns with no significant flooding risk.
CATEGORY 2
WHAT
Again, no risk of coastal flooding. Tide heights approach 19.1 ft late in the day, but the pressure remains safely above historically low values that have been associated with flood events, and NOAA’s reported flood likelihood is 0%.
WHEN
Highest tide near 10:30 PM on 07/02.
IMPACTS
No flooding impacts expected. Low-lying areas near the coast are not likely to experience inundation.
• Barometric pressure is around 1001.5 hPa during the evening peak, which is not low enough to exacerbate tidal effects.
• This is well below the threshold conditions seen in past Category 3 and 4 events.
CATEGORY 2
WHAT
No flood risk is expected despite an evening tide nearing 18.7 ft. The lowest forecast barometric pressure is approximately 997.7 hPa, which is still not low enough for heightened coastal flooding concerns, and NOAA continues to show a 0% flood likelihood.
WHEN
Highest tide near 11:00 PM to midnight on 07/03.
IMPACTS
No significant impacts to shoreline roads or property.
• While the barometric pressure is slightly lower on this day, the tide remains below 21 ft, and historical data suggests more severe events typically pair extreme tide heights with markedly lower pressures.
• NOAA’s flood threshold data (-2.19m from the threshold) corroborates the lack of flooding risk.
You should monitor later forecasts and be alert for possible Flood Warnings. Those living in areas prone to flooding should be prepared to take action should flooding develop.
• Categories 1-2: No risk of flooding.
• Category 3: Close to a flood event and worth monitoring.
• Category 4: Flooding is likely however, it is uncertain if this will cause major property damage.
• Category 5: Likely to flood and cause property damage.
• Categories 6-7: Extremely high risk of flooding and property damage.
