Redondo Beach, WA
CATEGORY 2
WHAT
No flooding is expected. Tide levels reach around 18.4 ft in the evening, but the barometric pressure remains relatively high (1015.95 hPa), and NOAA indicates a low flood likelihood (0%).
WHEN
Highest tides around 06:24 AM and 08:42 PM local time, with no significant flooding anticipated.
IMPACTS
No flood-related impacts are expected. Normal conditions for coastal areas are anticipated, and no property damage is likely.
Historical Category 3 or higher flood events generally involved higher tide levels (often above 19–20 ft) paired with lower barometric pressures near or below 1002 hPa. By contrast, Day 1’s tides, while moderately high, are well below thresholds historically associated with flooding, and the pressure is not particularly low.
CATEGORY 2
WHAT
No flooding is expected despite a modestly lower barometric pressure reading (1002.09 hPa) at the evening high tide of about 18.1 ft. NOAA’s flood likelihood remains at 0%.
WHEN
Highest tides near 07:00 AM and again around 09:42 PM local time.
IMPACTS
No appreciable impacts to property or low-lying roads. Conditions remain below historical flood thresholds.
The barometric pressure of around 1002 hPa is somewhat lower than Day 1, but still above the typical threshold (near or below 992.8 hPa) that has correlated with historic flooding. The tide level (about 18.1 ft) is below Category 3 event levels, and NOAA continues to report minimal flood potential.
CATEGORY 2
WHAT
Flooding is not expected. Peak tides fall around 16–17 ft, and barometric pressure readings (1003.14 hPa) are not low enough to raise flood concerns. NOAA flood likelihood remains 0%.
WHEN
Highest tides observed near 07:36 AM and 04:42 PM local time, with no flood impacts anticipated.
IMPACTS
Coastal areas and adjoining roads should remain clear of floodwater.
Compared to historical events that reached 19 ft or more with notably lower barometric pressures, Day 3’s conditions are moderate. No strong wind data or extremely low pressure is presented, further supporting a minimal flood risk.
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.
