Redondo Beach, WA
CATEGORY 2
WHAT Minor coastal flooding expected. Possible inundation of up to 0.5 feet above ground level near shorelines and low-lying areas.
*WHEN From 4:00 AM to 6:00 AM PST.
IMPACTS Minor flooding of low-lying areas, parks, and roads. Isolated road closures possible.
The barometric pressure is significantly higher than the threshold that indicates severe weather conditions and potential flooding. The high tide at 05:00 with a mean pressure MSL of 1029.5799560546875 hPa is well above the historical event thresholds that led to more severe flooding. The NOAA Flood Likelihood Analysis indicates a low likelihood of flooding at 1.0%, which is consistent with the high barometric pressure observed. The tide height is not provided, but the distance to the flood threshold is significant at -1.1m, suggesting that the tide is not expected to reach levels that would typically result in flooding.
CATEGORY 2
WHAT Coastal conditions similar to Day 1 with minor coastal flooding possible.
WHEN From 4:30 AM to 6:30 AM PST.
IMPACTS Similar minor impacts as Day 1, with potential for isolated areas of inundation.
Continuing the trend from Day 1, the barometric pressure remains high at around 1029.969970703125 hPa during the high tide at 05:36, which does not favor significant flood conditions. The NOAA Flood Likelihood Analysis still shows a low likelihood of flooding at 1.6%, and the distance to the flood threshold has slightly decreased to -1.0m, but remains in a range that does not suggest major flooding concerns.
CATEGORY 3
WHAT Increased risk of coastal flooding due to slightly lower barometric pressure and higher tide levels.
WHEN From 5:00 AM to 7:00 AM PST.
IMPACTS Elevated risk of minor to moderate flooding in low-lying coastal areas and roads, with possible disruptions to daily activities in vulnerable locations.
On Day 3, there is a slight decrease in barometric pressure to around 1026.300048828125 hPa during the high tide at 06:06, which may increase the risk of coastal flooding compared to the previous days. However, this pressure is still much higher than historical events that caused significant flooding. The NOAA Flood Likelihood Analysis remains low at 1.6%, and the distance to the flood threshold is nearly unchanged at -0.99m. While there is an increased risk compared to Days 1 and 2, it does not reach the severity of past Category 4 or higher events.
Residents 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. Consult local authorities or experts for final decision-making in flood-related situations and adhere to any advisories or evacuation orders that may be issued.
