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 05:00 AM to 06:00 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 associated with previous flood events, indicating less severe weather conditions and a lower likelihood of an extreme flooding event. The tide height is not expected to reach the levels seen in historical flood events that caused significant damage. The NOAA Flood Likelihood Analysis indicates a low likelihood of flooding for this date, with a distance to threshold of -1.71m, which supports the forecast of a lower category event.
CATEGORY 2
WHAT Minor coastal flooding potential persists with slight inundation possible in vulnerable areas.
WHEN From 05:30 AM to 06:30 AM PST.
IMPACTS Similar to Day 1, expect minor nuisance flooding in susceptible regions, with no significant property damage anticipated.
Continued high barometric pressure readings suggest stable weather conditions, reducing the risk of severe flooding. Tide levels remain below critical thresholds that have historically led to major flooding incidents. NOAA's analysis continues to show a low likelihood of flooding, aligning with the prediction of minimal flood impact.
CATEGORY 2
WHAT Ongoing minor coastal flooding risk with limited impact expected.
WHEN From 06:00 AM to 07:00 AM PST.
IMPACTS The pattern of minor coastal flooding continues, with potential for water encroachment into typically vulnerable areas but no substantial damage projected.
Barometric pressure remains elevated above concerning levels, suggesting a low probability of intense storm conditions conducive to significant flooding. Tide heights are not reaching the critical marks set by past Category 4 or higher events. NOAA's flood likelihood remains low for this date, further supporting the assessment of minimal flood risk.
Residents and visitors 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 the most current information and make decisions based on their guidance combined with these forecasts.
