Flood Watch

Redondo Beach, WA

Day 1: 2025-11-22

CATEGORY 2

WHAT
No risk of flooding is expected. Even though the high tide on this day approaches 19.75 ft, barometric pressure remains well above the critical low-pressure threshold (near 992 hPa), and NOAA indicates a very low (0.1%) flood likelihood.

WHEN
Highest tide occurs near 07:06 AM PST and 01:42 AM PST with mean sea-level pressure around 1006.9 hPa.

IMPACTS
No inundation of property or roads is anticipated. Marine conditions may be slightly elevated, but no significant flooding issues are expected.

ADDITIONAL DETAILS...

• The barometric pressure is much higher than the historically severe flood events, reducing risk.
• Tidal heights are below 21 ft, a key threshold for more serious flooding in this area.
• NOAA’s official flood likelihood rating remains extremely low for 2025-11-22, consistent with no significant storm system or strong onshore winds from the W/NW.


Day 2: 2025-11-23

CATEGORY 2

WHAT
No risk of flooding is expected. Tides around 19.75 ft again remain under the more critical 21 ft benchmark, and pressure readings are fairly high (1016–1023 hPa).

WHEN
Highest tide occurs near 07:42 AM PST (about 1016.7 hPa) and again late afternoon (17:12 PM PST, ~1023.4 hPa).

IMPACTS
No property damage or roadway flooding anticipated. Normal coastal conditions expected aside from slightly elevated seas.

ADDITIONAL DETAILS...

• Historically, Category 4 or 5 flood events occurred with tides above 20.5 ft coupled with lower pressures (sometimes below 1000 hPa). Current conditions do not align with those more severe scenarios.
• NOAA's probability remains low (0.1%), aligning with subdued flood risk for 2025-11-23.


Day 3: 2025-11-24

CATEGORY 2

WHAT
No risk of flooding is expected. Barometric pressure remains high at around 1024 hPa, and while the tide approaches approximately 19.70 ft, it is still below flood-prone levels.

WHEN
Highest tide occurs near 08:24 AM PST (about 1024.3 hPa), another high tide in the late afternoon near 17:54 PM PST.

IMPACTS
No coastal flooding impacts are expected. Low-lying areas should remain unaffected.

ADDITIONAL DETAILS...

• The combination of relatively high pressure and tides below 21 ft greatly reduces any chance of flooding.
• NOAA's daily flood likelihood remains at 0.1%, consistent with no anticipated coastal inundation.


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.

CATEGORY KEY

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.
