Redondo Beach, WA
CATEGORY 2
WHAT
Little to no flood risk is expected despite relatively high tides nearing 20 ft. Barometric pressure near 1004 hPa is not sufficiently low to raise concern, and NOAA’s flood likelihood is 0.0%.
WHEN
Highest tide around 9:12 PM local time.
IMPACTS
No flooding anticipated. Minor ponding in very low-lying areas could occur, but no damage or significant hazards are expected.
– Compared to historical Category 3 or higher events, the barometric pressure is relatively higher, and wind speeds are low.
– NOAA data indicates virtually no chance of coastal flooding this day.
– Tidal heights, while moderately high, remain below the typical thresholds observed in more serious flood events.
CATEGORY 2
WHAT
Tides up to around 19.9 ft. Barometric pressure readings near 1004–1005 hPa do not suggest a strong storm influence. NOAA projects no flood likelihood.
WHEN
Highest tide in the late evening near 9:48–9:54 PM local time.
IMPACTS
No flooding expected. Little to no impact on coastal infrastructure or roads.
– These tide levels are below those associated with past moderate flooding.
– The combination of relatively moderate pressure and a calm wind regime further reduces flood concerns.
– NOAA’s official forecast continues to show no significant flooding risk.
CATEGORY 2
WHAT
Tides may approach or slightly exceed 19.5 ft. Barometric pressure near 1001–1002 hPa is somewhat lower yet still not near the historical flooding thresholds. NOAA’s forecast remains at 0.0% flood likelihood.
WHEN
Early morning (6:12 AM) and late evening (around 10:00 PM onward) see the highest tides.
IMPACTS
No anticipated flooding or damage. No coastal road closures expected.
– While tides approach 20 ft, they remain below the 21 ft (and lower barometric pressure) markers that have historically caused issues.
– NOAA’s data and the lack of strong onshore winds confirm minimal coastal flood potential.
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.
