Redondo Beach, WA
CATEGORY 2
WHAT
No risk of flooding is expected on this day. Tides will reach around 19.0 feet in the early morning, but the barometric pressure remains relatively high (approximately 1012 hPa), and NOAA’s flood likelihood is reported at 0%.
WHEN
Highest tide near 05:24 AM PST.
IMPACTS
No flooding impacts are anticipated. Low-lying roadways and coastal areas should remain clear.
Though the tide height is moderately high (19.0 ft), it falls below the 21 ft threshold commonly seen in historical flood events. With high pressure and light winds, conditions do not match those of past flood events (e.g., 12/27/2022 or those above Category 3). NOAA’s data further supports no likelihood of flooding.
CATEGORY 2
WHAT
No flooding risk anticipated. Tide heights may briefly exceed 19.3 ft around the morning high tide, but barometric pressure remains around 1016 hPa, and NOAA indicates a 0% flood likelihood.
WHEN
Highest tide near 06:00 AM PST.
IMPACTS
No notable flooding impacts expected.
Even though tides are again moderately high, barometric pressure stays well above the low-pressure thresholds historically associated with flooding. Winds remain low-to-moderate, with no indication of a significant onshore push from the W/NW. Flooding is unlikely under these conditions.
CATEGORY 2
WHAT
No significant flood risk. Tides will peak slightly higher at around 19.6 ft during the early morning; however, barometric pressure near 1015 hPa and NOAA’s continuing 0% flood likelihood indicate minimal concern for coastal flooding.
WHEN
Highest tide near 06:36 AM PST.
IMPACTS
No flooding impacts are anticipated.
Even though the tide level is the highest among the three days, it remains below the 21 ft threshold used in historical comparisons for flood concerns. Wind speeds and direction do not indicate heightened risk. Historical flooding events typically involved significantly lower pressure (below ~992 hPa) and higher tide levels.
You should monitor later forecasts and remain alert for any updates. Those living in historically flood-prone areas should be prepared to take action if conditions change, but at present 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.
