Flood Watch

Redondo Beach, WA

Day 1: 2026-05-08

CATEGORY 1

WHAT No flooding risk is anticipated. A moderate tide and near-normal atmospheric pressure are keeping conditions well below flood thresholds.

WHEN Peak high tide occurs late at night around 11:54 PM, but no flooding issues are expected at that time.

IMPACTS • No impact anticipated.

REASONING A moderate tide is the primary factor, with slightly supportive pressure, but overall levels remain low. Onshore wind is minimal today. A past day with somewhat similar conditions (2026-02-01) reached Category 3, but it involved higher tides than forecast now.

Day 2: 2026-05-10

CATEGORY 1

WHAT No flooding risk is expected. Tides are normal, and pressure is slightly lower than on some days, but still not enough to pose any flood concern.

WHEN High tides occur overnight and late morning, but neither time frame shows signs of flood risk under these calm conditions.

IMPACTS • No impact anticipated.

REASONING Tide is again the main contributor, but it remains modest. Pressure is a bit below average yet not nearly low enough for concern. Wind is negligible. A comparable past day (2023-12-27) was Category 3, but that involved higher water levels than forecast for now.

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

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.
