Redondo Beach, WA
CATEGORY 2
WHAT
No risk of flooding. Although the morning high tide will reach approximately 18 feet, the barometric pressure is relatively high (exceeding 1016 hPa), and NOAA’s Flood Likelihood indicates 0% chance of flooding.
WHEN
Mainly around the high tide, near 08:00 AM Local Time.
IMPACTS
No flooding impacts are expected. Normal tidal fluctuations will occur with no anticipated inundation of low-lying areas.
• Compared to historical Category 3 or higher events, today’s barometric pressure is significantly higher (favoring reduced flood risk).
• NOAA’s daily flood assessment remains at 0%, in line with the lack of severe low-pressure conditions.
• Wind speeds are light, further reducing any potential storm surge effect.
CATEGORY 2
WHAT
No risk of flooding. Although tides will be near 17.9 feet in the morning and early evening, pressure readings around 1010–1011 hPa are not low enough to raise concerns, and NOAA continues to indicate 0% flood likelihood.
WHEN
Higher tides occur around 08:54 AM and 07:12 PM Local Time.
IMPACTS
No expected flooding impacts. Low-lying roads, parks, and waterfront areas should remain unaffected.
• Tides remain below 21 feet, which historically has been a more significant threshold for flooding.
• Barometric pressures, while slightly lower than Day 1, still do not approach historically low levels associated with past flood events.
• NOAA’s forecast for flooding remains low, supporting a Category 2 (“no risk”) outlook.
CATEGORY 2
WHAT
No risk of flooding. Morning high tide around 10:00 AM may approach 17.8 feet, but barometric pressure near 1012.6 hPa remains sufficiently high, and NOAA rates flood likelihood at 0%.
WHEN
Peak tide height anticipated around 10:00 AM Local Time; a secondary high tide is shortly past midnight but at similarly safe conditions.
IMPACTS
No flooding or inundation concerns are expected.
• Tide heights and pressures are well within safe ranges, with no indication of strong winds or storm surge from the W/NW.
• Historical comparisons show much higher flood risk typically requires significantly lower barometric pressure combined with a tide exceeding 21 feet. Neither condition is met.
• NOAA’s continuing 0% flood likelihood confirms the minimal risk.
You should monitor later forecasts and remain alert for any changes in conditions. Those living in areas prone to flooding should always be prepared to take action if conditions unexpectedly worsen, but at this time, no flooding is expected.
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.
