Redondo Beach, WA
CATEGORY 2
WHAT
No risk of flooding is expected. Tide heights approach 18 ft during the morning and evening high tides, but barometric pressure remains above critical low thresholds, and NOAA’s likelihood score is 0.0%, indicating no flood concerns.
WHEN
Main high tides at around 09:48 AM and 06:18 PM local time.
IMPACTS
No flood-related impacts anticipated. Shorelines and low-lying areas are expected to remain unaffected.
• Barometric pressures near 998–1000 hPa are higher than those typically associated with historical flood events.
• The NOAA Flood Likelihood Analysis indicates a comfortable margin below flood thresholds.
• Compared to past moderate flooding (e.g., Category 3 or 4 events with tides above 17–20 ft and barometric pressure near or below 1000 hPa), current conditions are less severe.
CATEGORY 2
WHAT
Continued no risk of flooding. Despite a high tide around 01:06 AM that may reach close to 18 ft, the barometric pressure near 1004–1008 hPa remains sufficiently high, keeping flood potential low.
WHEN
Main high tides around 01:06 AM and 04:48 PM local time.
IMPACTS
No notable coastal flooding consequences are expected. Normal marine conditions should prevail, with minimal or no water encroachment beyond usual high tide lines.
• Barometric pressure readings are higher than in historical events known to cause even minor flooding.
• NOAA Flood Likelihood is reported as 0.0%, confirming the low hazard outlook.
• Wind speeds remain moderate and do not align with significant storm surge conditions.
CATEGORY 2
WHAT
No risk of flooding. Tides may near 18 ft again, but the barometric pressure near 1007–1009 hPa indicates stable conditions, and NOAA’s daily flood likelihood remains at 0.0%.
WHEN
Main high tides are around 01:48 AM and 06:00 PM local time.
IMPACTS
No flooding impacts. Low-lying coastal zones and roads are expected to stay clear of any tidal inundation.
• Conditions do not resemble the historical Category 3 or higher flood events, which featured substantially lower barometric pressures or higher tide levels.
• With the NOAA threshold showing a large negative distance to flood level, there is no indication of even minor or nuisance flooding.
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.
