Redondo Beach, WA
CATEGORY 2
WHAT
Tide levels on 2025-08-09 are expected to peak around 19.4 ft with moderately high barometric pressures (near 1000–1005 hPa). These conditions are below the historically observed tidal heights (21+ ft) and low pressures that have led to significant flooding. NOAA’s Flood Likelihood is reported as 0.0%, indicating no expected flooding.
WHEN
Highest tide near 18:00 PST and early morning around 03:42 PST.
IMPACTS
No flooding impacts are anticipated. Typical waterfront areas are likely to see ordinary high-tide conditions without inundation of nearby roads or properties.
Compared to historically severe flood events (which generally feature tide heights over 21 ft coupled with barometric pressure below ~992 hPa), Day 1’s forecasted conditions remain well within safe margins. NOAA data also confirms minimal flood risk.
CATEGORY 2
WHAT
Although tide heights could reach about 19.6 ft, barometric pressures remain relatively high (near 1003 hPa). These levels are insufficient to pose a flooding threat. NOAA’s Flood Likelihood remains at 0.0%.
WHEN
Peak tides occur early morning around 04:30 PST and again near 09:00 PST, with elevated but non-hazardous levels into the evening.
IMPACTS
No anticipated flooding of low-lying areas. Coastal conditions may appear only slightly above normal, with no adverse property impacts expected.
Historically, Category 4+ floods have involved substantially lower pressures and tides exceeding 21 ft. Current data for Day 2 does not meet these criteria. NOAA’s minimal flood likelihood supports a no-risk classification.
CATEGORY 2
WHAT
Forecasted tide heights may approach 19.8 ft, paired with pressures of about 1004–1005 hPa. This combination remains below coastal flood thresholds. NOAA’s Flood Likelihood is 0.0%.
WHEN
Highest tide is anticipated around 18:48 PST and another peak near 05:18 PST.
IMPACTS
No flooding impacts are expected. Normal fluctuations in water levels will not endanger property or infrastructure.
Even though Day 3’s tide is relatively high compared to a standard tide, it is below the 21 ft threshold historically linked to more serious events. Higher barometric pressure readings further reduce flooding 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.
