Flood Watch

Redondo Beach, WA

Day 1: 2026-08-29

Category 2

WHAT
No flooding risk is expected. Moderately elevated tide is the primary factor, with near-normal pressure and minimal onshore wind influence.

WHEN
Higher water levels will occur around 6:00 AM and again near 6:54 PM.

IMPACTS
• No impact anticipated.

REASONING
Tide was the main contributor, with a slight positive effect from the pressure. Onshore wind remained too low to significantly contribute. Forecast models show unanimous agreement at Category 2 with no worse tail scenario.

Day 2: 2026-08-30

Category 2

WHAT
No flooding risk is indicated. Moderate tide and slightly above-normal pressure lead to a routine outlook.

WHEN
Water levels peak around 6:48 AM and again near 7:18 PM.

IMPACTS
• No impact anticipated.

REASONING
Again, the moderate tide is the main driver. Pressure remains near or slightly above normal, and onshore wind is modest. Ensemble models are consistent at Category 2.

Day 3: 2026-08-31

Category 2

WHAT
No flooding risk is forecast. Slightly elevated tide is the leading factor, with near-normal pressure and negligible onshore wind contribution.

WHEN
Peak water levels occur near 7:36 AM and again around 7:42 PM.

IMPACTS
• No impact anticipated.

REASONING
Tide remains the dominant factor, while pressure is near normal and wind provides no additional push. All ensemble outcomes agree on a Category 2 rating.
