Redondo Beach, WA
CATEGORY 2
WHAT
No flooding is anticipated. Tides near 19 feet are offset by relatively high barometric pressure (around 1022 hPa), indicating no coastal flood risk.
WHEN
Highest tides occur around 07:06 AM and 05:18 PM local time, but conditions will remain below flood thresholds throughout the day.
IMPACTS
No notable impacts expected. Low-lying areas and roads should remain unaffected.
• Barometric pressure is well above historical low-pressure flood benchmarks, significantly reducing the potential for coastal flooding.
• NOAA’s Flood Likelihood Analysis for 10/24 indicates a 0.0% chance of reaching flood thresholds.
• Winds are generally from the SSE at moderate speeds, which typically does not exacerbate coastal flooding in this area.
• Compared to historical Category 3 or higher events, today’s tide heights combined with higher pressure show no risk of inundation.
CATEGORY 2
WHAT
Again, no flooding is expected despite tides reaching near 19 feet. Although barometric pressure dips slightly (around 1016–1018 hPa), it remains far above the critical low-pressure thresholds seen in past flood events.
WHEN
Peak high tides occur near 07:48 AM and 05:48 PM local time. Flooding conditions are unlikely during these times.
IMPACTS
No immediate impacts anticipated. Coastal roads and property should remain secure.
• While the tide is relatively high, it is below levels recorded during historical Category 3–5 events, especially when paired with much lower pressures.
• NOAA reports a 0.0% flood likelihood for 10/25 with ample distance to its flood threshold.
• Winds remain mostly from the SSE, a less impactful direction for pushing water inland in the Redondo Beach area.
CATEGORY 2
WHAT
No significant coastal flooding threat is forecast. Tides again approach 19 feet, but barometric pressure near 1014–1015 hPa remains sufficiently high to mitigate flood risks.
WHEN
Highest tides occur around 08:36 AM and 06:18 PM local time. No flood-related issues are expected then.
IMPACTS
Minimal to none. Shoreline areas and low-lying roads are unlikely to experience any water intrusion.
• Despite a gradual barometric pressure decrease, it remains well above historical low-pressure flood events (< 992 hPa).
• NOAA continues to indicate 0.0% likelihood of flood-stage exceedance on 10/26.
• Past Category 3 events featured higher tides (20+ ft) and notably lower pressure; current conditions compare favorably, indicating no flood risk.
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.
