Redondo Beach, WA
CATEGORY 2
WHAT
No risk of flooding is expected based on the current combination of moderate high tide levels (peaking near 19 ft) and relatively higher barometric pressure (above 1014 hPa). NOAA’s Flood Likelihood for this date is reported at 0.0%, indicating negligible chance of coastal flooding.
WHEN
The highest tides on 2026-03-29 occur around 14:06 and 22:00 PST but are not forecast to reach thresholds that normally signal a flood risk.
IMPACTS
No significant impacts anticipated. Low-lying areas should remain clear of tidal inundation, and no property damage or road closures related to coastal flooding are expected.
• Historical comparisons show that major flooding typically requires barometric pressures around or below 992.8 hPa combined with tide heights of 21 ft or more. Current forecasts do not meet these criteria.
• NOAA’s latest analysis confirms a negligible 0.0% likelihood of flooding.
CATEGORY 2
WHAT
Similar to Day 1, no risk of flooding is projected. Although tidal levels approach moderate heights (19 ft range), the barometric pressure remains well above past flood thresholds, and NOAA reports 0.0% flood likelihood.
WHEN
High tides occur around 15:06 and 22:24 PST. No flooding conditions are expected during these periods.
IMPACTS
No anticipated flooding or significant impacts to property or roadways. Typical tidal fluctuations may affect beaches and very low-lying spots minimally, but no flood-related damage is expected.
• Barometric pressure remains near 1009–1012 hPa, which is not considered low for this region.
• In past Category 4 or 5 flood events, tides were notably higher (often exceeding 20 ft) with much lower pressure recorded.
CATEGORY 2
WHAT
No flood risk is anticipated despite slightly lower barometric readings (about 1004 hPa) and high tides nearing the 19 ft range. NOAA’s forecasted flood likelihood remains at 0.0%.
WHEN
Key high tides occur near 03:54 and 16:00 PST. These observed conditions are still insufficient to create coastal flooding concerns.
IMPACTS
Minimal to no coastal flooding impacts expected. No disruption to daily activities, roads, or shoreline properties is anticipated.
• While this day has lower barometric pressure compared to Days 1 and 2, it remains significantly higher than the historical thresholds (under ~992 hPa) that have coincided with damaging floods.
• Tide levels do not exceed the 21 ft or more typically associated with past flood events in Redondo Beach.
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.
