Redondo Beach, WA
CATEGORY 2
WHAT
No risk of coastal flooding is expected on August 26. Although the evening tide will reach nearly 19.0 ft, barometric pressure remains well above historically low-flood thresholds.
WHEN
Higher tide periods around 06:24 AM and 06:48 PM local time.
IMPACTS
No flooding anticipated. Normal tidal fluctuations may lead to very minimal ponding in typical low spots, but no property damage or inundation concerns are expected.
• Barometric pressure near the peak high tide is ~1014 hPa, which is safely above the ~992 hPa historically linked to more severe flooding.
• NOAA’s Flood Likelihood is 0.0% for this date, further indicating no expected flood conditions.
• Winds remain light and are not from a problematic onshore direction, reducing any chance of tide-driven flooding.
CATEGORY 2
WHAT
No flooding expected on August 27, despite a moderate high tide in the morning.
WHEN
The highest risk period is during the early morning high tide around 07:18 AM.
IMPACTS
No significant tidal impacts are expected. Low-lying coastal areas will see normal tidal levels, well below flood thresholds.
• The morning’s barometric pressure (~1009–1010 hPa) remains substantially above historical flooding benchmarks.
• NOAA’s Flood Likelihood remains 0.0% for this date.
• Wind speeds and directions are not conducive to pushing water inland.
CATEGORY 2
WHAT
No risk of coastal flooding is expected on August 28. Although evening tides may approach 18–19 ft, conditions do not align with historical flood triggers.
WHEN
High tides occur around 08:12 AM and 07:42 PM, with no notable flood threat at these times.
IMPACTS
Areas along the immediate shoreline will see normal tide effects. No inundation or road closures are anticipated.
• Barometric pressure is near 1007–1008 hPa—still well above the historically significant low-pressure thresholds.
• NOAA’s Flood Likelihood for August 28 is reported at 0.0%.
• Moderate but not extreme tide heights, and no strong onshore winds, reduce any concern of coastal flooding.
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.
