Redondo Beach, WA
CATEGORY 2
WHAT
No flooding is expected. While the morning high tide near 07:00 PST will reach about 20.09 ft, the barometric pressure is notably high (around 1029.58 hPa). Such high pressure greatly reduces the likelihood of tidal flooding despite the relatively elevated water levels. NOAA’s flood likelihood is low, at approximately 2.3%.
WHEN
Highest tide around 07:00 PST.
IMPACTS
No significant impacts anticipated. Coastal walkways and very low-lying spots may see water encroachment, but no actual flooding is expected.
• Tidal height peak at about 20.09 ft.
• Barometric pressure well above the historical low-flood thresholds (over 1029 hPa).
• Winds from the south around 11 mph, relatively modest compared to past flood events.
• NOAA data indicates only a 2.3% flood likelihood.
• Compared to similar tide heights in historical Category 3–4 events, the much higher barometric pressure and low NOAA flood probability keep flood potential minimal.
CATEGORY 2
WHAT
No flooding is expected. A high tide near 07:30 PST could reach around 20.15 ft, but barometric pressure remains high (near 1020.56 hPa), and NOAA indicates a low 2.1% flood likelihood.
WHEN
Highest tide around 07:30 PST, with another elevated tide in the late afternoon, both below typical flood thresholds given the continued high pressure.
IMPACTS
No adverse flooding impacts are expected in normally flood-prone areas.
• Tidal peak: roughly 20.15 ft in the morning.
• Barometric pressure ~1020 hPa, significantly higher than the pressures seen in severe flood events.
• Winds from the south at about 10–13 mph, lower than historical flood-inducing wind speeds.
CATEGORY 2
WHAT
No flooding is expected. The morning high tide around 08:00 PST is forecast near 20.21 ft, and barometric pressure stays around 1020.02 hPa. NOAA’s flood likelihood is still quite low—about 3.6%.
WHEN
Highest tide near 08:00 PST, with lower water levels during the late afternoon and evening.
IMPACTS
No significant coastal flooding concerns.
• Maximum tide height ~20.21 ft, similar to Day 2.
• Persistent high pressure and modest south winds (generally below 15 mph).
• NOAA flood likelihood remains under 4%, well below the level observed in comparable past flood events.
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.
