CATEGORY 1
WHAT Category 1 means no flooding risk. Conditions should remain calm, mainly influenced by the routine high tide.
WHEN Highest tide is expected in the late afternoon around 4:36 PM.
IMPACTS • No impact anticipated.
REASONING Tide was the main factor, with only modest contribution from relatively normal pressure. Onshore wind did not add any significant effect. Similar to the 2025-10-03 Cat 1 event, this day is not expected to produce any flooding.
CATEGORY 1
WHAT Another Category 1 day with routine tides and slightly lower pressure than the day before, but still no flooding risk.
WHEN Peak tide will occur in the late afternoon near 5:06 PM.
IMPACTS • No impact anticipated.
REASONING Tide again provides the biggest push, with a small boost from below-normal pressure. Wind slightly offset some of the tidal effect, leading to a continued low-risk scenario. Conditions resemble other Cat 1 events on record, and no flooding is expected.
CATEGORY 2
WHAT Category 2 remains within the “no flooding risk” range, though tide and somewhat lower pressure both contribute more than the previous days.
WHEN Expect the highest water level in the late afternoon around 5:30 PM.
IMPACTS • No impact anticipated.
REASONING The higher astronomical tide is the dominant factor today, with a modest effect from below-normal pressure. Wind is minimal and does not significantly change conditions. Ensemble guidance does not indicate any higher-category outcomes, so the overall risk stays low.
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.
