Flood Watch

Redondo Beach, WA

Day 1: 2025-11-11

CATEGORY 2

WHAT
No risk of coastal flooding is expected on this date. Tidal heights near midday (around 19.78 ft) are below historical flood-event levels, and barometric pressure readings are not unusually low. NOAA’s flood likelihood data confirms minimal risk.

WHEN
Highest tide occurs around 10:36 AM PST, with a secondary high tide later in the evening.

IMPACTS
No significant impacts are anticipated. Normal beach and shoreline activity can continue without elevated flood concerns.

ADDITIONAL DETAILS...

• The high tide just under 20 ft falls short of past Category 3 or higher flood events (historical Category 3 examples typically exceed 20 ft and/or coincide with notably lower barometric pressure).
• Barometric pressure remains around 1018 hPa, well above the low-pressure threshold (approximately 992.8 hPa) that has historically contributed to more serious flooding.
• NOAA’s daily flood likelihood for 2025-11-11 is 0.1%, reinforcing the assessment of minimal risk.


Day 2: 2025-11-12

CATEGORY 2

WHAT
No risk of coastal flooding is expected on this date. Although the tide will again approach the higher teens (near 19.65 ft), barometric pressure does not indicate storm conditions, and NOAA’s flood likelihood is negligible.

WHEN
Highest tide is near 11:36 AM PST.

IMPACTS
No significant impacts are anticipated. Beachfront areas should remain unaffected by these tidal levels.

ADDITIONAL DETAILS...

• Compared to previous moderate flood events above 20 ft, forecasted tide levels are lower.
• Mean sea-level pressure readings near 1014–1015 hPa are not low enough to raise notable concerns.
• NOAA reports a 0.0% flood likelihood for 2025-11-12, aligning with Category 2 (no flood risk).


Day 3: 2025-11-13

CATEGORY 2

WHAT
No risk of flooding is anticipated. Peak tidal height is expected around midday (approximately 19.57 ft), accompanied by relatively high barometric pressure (around 1020 hPa).

WHEN
Highest tide is around 12:24 PM PST.

IMPACTS
No immediate flood concerns. Coastal areas should remain clear of inundation.

ADDITIONAL DETAILS...

• While the forecast tide surpasses 19 ft, the high barometric pressure and NOAA’s 0.0% flood likelihood support a no-risk category.
• Historically, Category 3 or higher floods have involved tide heights well over 20 ft combined with markedly lower pressure.


PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

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.
