CATEGORY 3
WHAT... The barometric pressure forecasted for the high tide at 13:48 is 1022.9935913085938 hPa, which is significantly higher than the threshold associated with historical Category 3 events. The high tide at 18:48 has a lower pressure of 1017.4515991210938 hPa, still above the critical threshold. NOAA's Flood Likelihood Analysis indicates a 0.0% chance of flooding, which aligns with the low-risk assessment.
WHEN... Given the high barometric pressures and low NOAA flood likelihood, there is a low risk of flooding for this day.
The weather data shows moderate rainfall and wind speeds with a predominantly southwestern direction, which may contribute to water accumulation but not significantly enough to elevate the risk given the current pressure readings.
CATEGORY 4
WHAT... The high tide at 05:24 corresponds with a barometric pressure of 1006.3031616210938 hPa, which is close to the threshold observed during historical Category 3 events. Considering the NOAA flood likelihood of 0.8%, there is an elevated risk compared to Day 1 but still within a moderate range.
WHEN... The risk of flooding is higher than on Day 1 due to the proximity of the barometric pressure to critical thresholds during high tide, although still not expected to cause major property damage.
The presence of light snow and sleet in the forecast may not contribute significantly to flood risks. However, vigilance is advised due to the marginal barometric pressure readings.
CATEGORY 3
WHAT... Barometric pressures for both high tides are well above critical thresholds (1013.84521484375 hPa and 1014.7032470703125 hPa). NOAA indicates a low flood likelihood of 4.9%, which is higher than previous days but still categorized as low risk.
WHEN... Although there is an increased likelihood according to NOAA, the high barometric pressures suggest that flooding is unlikely to cause significant damage.
Weather conditions show potential for light sleet and patchy rain possible, which should be monitored but are not expected to significantly impact flood risks given the current data.
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. Always consult local authorities or experts for final decision-making in flood-related situations.
