Flood Watch

Redondo Beach, WA

Day 1: 2026-08-10

Category 2

WHAT
A routine day with no flooding risk. Moderate astronomical tide and near-normal pressure are producing only minor water level elevations.

WHEN
Peak risk windows near 2:12 AM and again around 5:24 PM during high tides.

IMPACTS
- No impact anticipated.

REASONING
Tide was the primary factor, with a small boost from slightly above-normal pressure. Onshore wind contribution is minimal, and this is not a king tide day.


Day 2: 2026-08-11

Category 2

WHAT
Another routine day with no flood concerns. Moderately high tide and normal pressure levels keep conditions stable.

WHEN
Peak risk windows near 3:12 AM and around 6:00 PM.

IMPACTS
- No impact anticipated.

REASONING
Tide remains the main driver, with minor influence from near-normal pressure. Wind speeds are low, and no king tide conditions are present.


Day 3: 2026-08-12

Category 2

WHAT
Yet another day with no flood threat. Tidal levels are moderate, and pressure remains fairly normal.

WHEN
Peak risk windows near 4:12 AM and around 6:30 PM.

IMPACTS
- No impact anticipated.

REASONING
The moderate tide dominates the forecast, with a minor effect from slightly lower pressure. Wind remains light, and there is no king tide.
