Redondo Beach, WA
CATEGORY 2
WHAT
No coastal flooding is expected. High tide will approach approximately 19.6 feet in the afternoon, but barometric pressure remains well above the historically significant low thresholds (hovering around 1003.8–1007.4 hPa). Wind speeds are light.
WHEN
Main high-tide period near 04:30 AM and later around 05:00 PM through 06:00 PM PDT.
IMPACTS
No significant impacts anticipated at this time. Low-lying areas and shorelines should experience typical tidal conditions without notable flooding.
• Historical Category 4–5 flood events typically featured lower barometric pressure (at or below ~1002 hPa) plus tide levels at or above 20–21 feet. Here, the maximum tide on 09/08 remains below 20 feet, and the pressure is much higher than the low-pressure benchmarks.
• NOAA’s daily flood likelihood is 0.0%, further indicating minimal risk.
CATEGORY 2
WHAT
Again, no coastal flooding is anticipated. The highest tide is expected to reach around 19.8 feet, and barometric pressure during the peak tide is near 1013.3 hPa, which is not considered low.
WHEN
High-tide windows around 05:24 AM and 05:00–06:00 PM PDT.
IMPACTS
No property damage or flooding issues expected. Normal tidal fluctuations should prevail.
• Compared with past moderate-to-severe flood events, this day’s barometric pressure is notably higher, and wind speeds are minimal.
• NOAA projects a 0.0% flood likelihood, aligning with a history of no flooding unless tides exceed ~21 feet paired with substantially lower pressure.
CATEGORY 2
WHAT
No risk of flooding is forecast. Peak tide levels approach 19.7 feet, but pressures exceed 1012 hPa, and winds remain fairly light.
WHEN
High-tide peaks in the early morning around 06:24 AM and again late afternoon around 06:00–07:00 PM PDT.
IMPACTS
No significant coastal flooding or damage. Typical tidal behavior is expected.
• Even though tides near 20 feet warrant tracking, the relatively high barometric pressures above 1012 hPa keep conditions stable.
• NOAA’s 0.0% flood likelihood underscores the minimal concern for flood impacts.
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.
