Redondo Beach, WA
CATEGORY 2
WHAT
No significant risk of flooding expected. The highest tide is near 19.76 ft, with barometric pressure around 1010 hPa—well above the low-pressure thresholds that typically contribute to flooding.
WHEN
Near the midday high tide around 11:30 AM – 12:00 PM PST on 2025-11-29.
IMPACTS
Primarily no impacts. Low-lying areas along the coast may experience very minor ponding but no notable flooding is anticipated.
• Compared with historical events, today’s maximum tide height is below thresholds commonly associated with coastal flooding.
• NOAA’s flood likelihood is only 0.1%, further indicating minimal risk.
• Wind speeds remain light from northerly directions, offering little onshore push.
CATEGORY 2
WHAT
Still no substantial flood risk. The highest tide (approximately 19.90 ft) coincides with relatively high barometric pressure near 1021 hPa, reducing the likelihood of any coastal inundation.
WHEN
Flood risk is lowest through the midday hours around 12:00 PM – 12:30 PM PST on 2025-11-30 (and a lesser high tide shortly after midnight).
IMPACTS
No direct flooding impacts expected. Coastal parks and roads should remain unaffected.
• Tide levels remain under 21 ft, generally below high-flood benchmarks.
• NOAA projects flooding probability of only 0.2%, staying in the low range.
• Historical Category 3 or higher events show much lower barometric pressures and higher tidal extremes than forecasted today.
CATEGORY 2
WHAT
No flood risk is forecast. Tides may briefly exceed 20 ft around midday, but barometric pressure is high (1022+ hPa) and NOAA flood likelihood is only 1.8%.
WHEN
Peak tide near 12:45 PM – 1:00 PM PST on 2025-12-01.
IMPACTS
Minimal or no flooding in vulnerable areas. Normal coastal activities should remain unaffected.
• Though the tide exceeds 20 ft briefly, high atmospheric pressure and very low flood probability keep overall flood risk modest.
• Winds remain generally light, limiting any wave setup or onshore surge.
• By comparison, Category 3 historical events had higher flood likelihood (8%–11%) or substantially lower barometric pressures, neither of which apply here.
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.
