Redondo Beach, WA
CATEGORY 2
WHAT
No significant flooding is expected. The highest tides, near 18.9 feet, and moderately stable barometric pressure (~1016–1017 hPa) indicate no risk of coastal flood impacts on shorelines or adjacent low-lying areas.
WHEN
High tide peaks around 08:36 AM and again at 06:18 PM on October 26.
IMPACTS
No flood-related impacts anticipated at this time.
• NOAA’s Flood Likelihood Analysis indicates a 0.0% chance of flooding for October 26, and the distance from flood threshold is more than 2 meters below NOAA’s reference level.
• Historical Category 3 events in this region typically involve tide heights above 20 ft or significantly lower barometric pressures.
• Current wind speeds and directions do not suggest any heightened storm surge.
CATEGORY 2
WHAT
Similar to Day 1, no tangible flood threat is forecast. Peak tides near 18.7–18.8 feet, combined with relatively high barometric pressure around 1020–1024 hPa, result in minimal flooding potential.
WHEN
Highest risk of coastal effects (though still minimal) around 09:30 AM and 06:54 PM on October 27.
IMPACTS
No flooding impacts are expected.
• NOAA’s data for October 27 also shows a 0.0% flood likelihood, and measured pressures are well above the low-pressure thresholds often associated with significant flooding.
• Wind speeds remain moderate, and the wind direction is not aligned to create substantial onshore surge.
CATEGORY 2
WHAT
No risk of flooding. Tide heights—peaking around 18.6 feet—remain below thresholds historically tied to flood events. Barometric pressure continues at or above 1023 hPa, keeping flood potential low.
WHEN
Highest tide around 10:36 AM and again near 08:00 PM on October 28.
IMPACTS
No coastal flooding is expected for Day 3.
• NOAA’s likelihood remains at 0.0%, with the tidal elevation comfortably below critical flood thresholds.
• There is no indication of severe wind or atmospheric disturbances that typically magnify 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.
