Redondo Beach, WA
CATEGORY 2
WHAT
No coastal flooding is expected. The early morning high tide will be relatively elevated (peaking near 18.7 ft), but atmospheric pressure around 1000 hPa and NOAA’s 0% flood likelihood both indicate no significant flood risk.
WHEN
Highest tide near 05:24 AM local time.
IMPACTS
No flooding impacts anticipated. Typical tidal fluctuations along the shoreline without inundation of low-lying areas.
• Tides will be below historically significant flood events (which often exceed 20 ft).
• Barometric pressure, though a bit lower than average, remains well above the threshold (around 992 hPa) that historically correlates with flood events.
• NOAA reports a 0% flood likelihood for this date, further supporting a minimal-risk assessment.
CATEGORY 2
WHAT
No risk of flooding despite moderately high tides (near 18.5 ft). Barometric pressure is forecast around 1001–1004 hPa, remaining well above the critical low-pressure levels historically associated with flood events.
WHEN
Highest tides near 05:54 AM and 19:54 PM local time.
IMPACTS
No expected inundation or disruptions. Local roads and coastal infrastructure should remain unaffected.
• Past Category 3 events had similar or lower tides but notably lower barometric pressure and higher NOAA flood likelihood. Those conditions are not present this day.
• Official NOAA forecasts continue to show a 0% flood likelihood, suggesting calm conditions.
CATEGORY 2
WHAT
No risk of flooding. Tides remain below major thresholds (peaking around the mid- to upper-18 ft range), with relatively high barometric pressure near 1007 hPa, which is unfavorable for coastal flooding.
WHEN
Highest tides near 06:24 AM and 20:42 PM local time.
IMPACTS
No flood-related effects expected. Normal tidal variations along the shoreline are anticipated.
• While peak tidal heights approach levels seen in some minimal flood-category events, the high-pressure conditions (well above 992 hPa) and a 0% NOAA flood likelihood greatly reduce concerns.
• Winds remain modest and mainly northerly, not favoring onshore surge.
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.
