Redondo Beach, WA
CATEGORY 2
WHAT
No flooding is expected. High tides will reach around the upper 19-ft range, but barometric pressures are very high (around or above 1029 hPa), which significantly reduces any flood risk.
WHEN
Highest tide near 05:36 AM PST and again around 05:30 PM PST on 2026-03-04.
IMPACTS
No notable flooding impacts are anticipated. Low-lying areas and coastal roads are expected to remain clear.
NOAA’s Flood Likelihood is very low (about 0.2%), and the barometric pressure readings—well above 1000 hPa—are much higher than those recorded during past flooding events. Historical category 3 or higher flood events typically involved lower pressure (under 1020 hPa) and higher tide levels (often above 20 ft). Given today’s elevated pressure and forecast tide levels below more critical thresholds, there is no risk of flooding for Day 1.
CATEGORY 2
WHAT
No flooding is expected. Tides will again peak around the upper 19-ft range, with high atmospheric pressure (around or above 1030 hPa) continuing.
WHEN
Highest tide near 06:00 AM PST and again around 06:18 PM PST on 2026-03-05.
IMPACTS
No significant impacts on coastal areas are anticipated. Normal activity in shoreline regions should remain unaffected.
NOAA’s Flood Likelihood for this date is also very low (about 0.2%), and these coastal water levels remain below historical flood benchmarks. Winds will remain light, and barometric pressure is considerably higher than in past floods. Consequently, conditions do not suggest any risk of coastal flooding for Day 2.
CATEGORY 2
WHAT
No flooding is expected. Although early-morning tidal peaks approach 19.6 ft, the barometric pressure persists at very high levels (around 1030 hPa).
WHEN
Highest tide near 06:24 AM PST and again close to 07:12 PM PST on 2026-03-06.
IMPACTS
No coastal inundation is anticipated. Low-lying roads and infrastructure are expected to remain clear.
NOAA’s Flood Likelihood for 2026-03-06 sits at 0.0%, confirming minimal concerns. Comparisons to past flooding events show that actual flood conditions typically require lower pressure (under ~992–1020 hPa) and tides exceeding 20 ft. Since neither condition is met, there is no risk of flooding for Day 3.
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.
