Flood Watch

Redondo Beach, WA

Day 1: 2026-07-01

CATEGORY 2

WHAT
A routine day overall, with no flooding risk. Moderate tide is the main factor, while pressure remains near normal and onshore wind is minimal.

WHEN
Higher water levels near 5:24 AM and again around 8:12 PM.

IMPACTS
- No impact anticipated.

REASONING
Tide was the primary contributor, though still not high enough to pose a flood concern. Slightly above-normal pressure and weak onshore wind provide no significant additional risk. All forecast models agree on Category 2.


Day 2: 2026-07-02

CATEGORY 2

WHAT
No flood risk is expected, driven mainly by moderate tidal height. Pressure is a bit lower but not enough to increase flood likelihood, and wind remains light.

WHEN
Peak water levels around 6:06 AM and 8:36 PM.

IMPACTS
- No impact anticipated.

REASONING
Again, tide is the leading factor, with pressure slightly below normal but still not at flood-inducing levels. Onshore wind stays minimal. Ensemble forecasts consistently show Category 2.


Day 3: 2026-07-03

CATEGORY 2

WHAT
Continued routine conditions with no sign of flooding. Moderate tide and near-normal pressure keep the risk low.

WHEN
High tides near 6:54 AM and 9:06 PM.

IMPACTS
- No impact anticipated.

REASONING
The moderate tidal height is the main driver. Pressure is close to normal, and winds remain light. All ensemble members place this day at Category 2 with no outlier scenario.
