Redondo Beach, WA
CATEGORY 2
WHAT
No risk of coastal flooding is expected. Tides will reach approximately 18.5 ft in the morning, but with a moderately high barometric pressure (around 1013 hPa) and NOAA’s flood likelihood at 0%, conditions do not indicate significant flooding.
WHEN
Highest tide near 09:48 AM PST.
IMPACTS
No flooding impacts are anticipated. Low-lying roads and beaches should remain unaffected.
Although the tide height is moderately high, historical flood events typically involve pressures below 1000 hPa and tides exceeding 20 ft. Current barometric pressures remain well above those lower thresholds, and NOAA’s analysis ranks flood likelihood as “Low.” Thus, the risk of flooding is minimal.
CATEGORY 2
WHAT
No risk of coastal flooding. Tides will again rise toward the 18 ft range, but extremely high barometric pressure (above 1032 hPa) and NOAA’s 0% flood likelihood ensure no significant flood threat.
WHEN
Notable high tide near 02:18 AM PST and again mid-afternoon; neither is expected to exceed critical flood thresholds.
IMPACTS
No property impacts anticipated. Usual coastal activities and travel should proceed without flood-related concerns.
Historical comparisons show that tides under 20 ft, paired with high barometric pressure, rarely produce flooding. Pressure readings on this day are substantially higher than those from documented flood events, reinforcing the expectation of no coastal inundation.
CATEGORY 2
WHAT
No risk of flooding. Morning tides approach 19 ft, but pressure remains very high (about 1030 hPa), and NOAA forecasts a 0% flood likelihood.
WHEN
Highest tide near 03:12 AM PST, with another midday peak around 12:30 PM PST.
IMPACTS
No flood-related disruptions are expected. Beaches and nearby roads should remain clear of high water.
Despite the relatively higher tides, modern historical data indicates that significantly lower barometric pressures (well below ~1000 hPa) and tide heights above 20 ft are typically needed to prompt potential flooding. All indicators for Day 3 remain well outside hazardous ranges.
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.
