Redondo Beach, WA
CATEGORY 2
WHAT
No coastal flooding is expected. Tides will be moderately high (peaking near 19.2 ft), but barometric pressure remains relatively high around 1012 hPa. NOAA’s Flood Likelihood is 0.0%, indicating no flood threat.
WHEN
Highest tide expected around 6:24 PM local time.
IMPACTS
No anticipated flooding impacts to property or roadways.
Historically, similar tide levels without low barometric pressure or notable onshore winds (W/NW) have not resulted in flooding. Compared to past Category 3 and higher events, the barometric pressure here is not low enough to raise concerns, and NOAA’s 0% flood likelihood further supports minimal risk.
CATEGORY 2
WHAT
Again, no flood impacts are expected. Projected peak tide is near 19.0 ft, but the barometric pressure around 1013 hPa remains well above the historical low-pressure thresholds linked with flood events.
WHEN
Highest tide expected near 6:48 PM local time.
IMPACTS
No direct flooding of coastal areas is anticipated.
While the tide is moderately high, the NOAA Flood Likelihood for this day is at 0.0%. Historically, Category 3 or greater typically involves lower barometric pressure and/or a higher NOAA flood probability. Conditions here do not align with those more serious scenarios.
CATEGORY 2
WHAT
No flood risk expected. The highest forecasted tide on this date is slightly lower than the prior two days (around 18.7–19.0 ft). Mean sea-level pressure drops a bit more (about 1009.7 hPa) but remains well above the notably low pressures (under ~992.8 hPa) seen in historical flood events.
WHEN
Morning high tide around 7:18 AM, with no significant flooding concerns.
IMPACTS
Minimal to no flood impacts in low-lying areas; routine daily conditions expected.
Compared to noteworthy historical events (e.g., 12/27/2022 Category 5) that had much lower pressure (978.4 hPa) and higher tide levels (>22 ft), these tides are below that threshold, and NOAA forecasts a 0.0% flood likelihood. Consequently, there is no anticipated coastal inundation.
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.
