Flood Watch

Redondo Beach, WA

Day 1: 2024-02-27

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 6:00 AM to 7:00 AM PST.

IMPACTS Minor flooding of low-lying areas, parks, and roads. Isolated road closures possible.

ADDITIONAL DETAILS...

The barometric pressure is significantly higher than the threshold that indicates severe weather conditions and potential flooding. The high tide at 06:36 with a mean pressure MSL of 1029.3199462890625 hPa is well above the threshold that historically indicates flooding, reducing the likelihood of a severe flood event. The NOAA Flood Likelihood Analysis indicates a low likelihood of flooding for this date, with a flood threshold distance of -1.73m, which supports the assessment of a lower category flood potential.

Day 2: 2024-02-28

CATEGORY 1

WHAT No significant coastal flooding expected.

WHEN Throughout the day.

IMPACTS No notable impacts due to flooding are anticipated.

ADDITIONAL DETAILS...

The barometric pressure during the high tide at 07:00 is at 1034.3699951171875 hPa, which is considerably higher than any historical event associated with flooding. This suggests very stable weather conditions and a very low risk of flooding. NOAA's Flood Likelihood Analysis also supports this with a low likelihood prediction for this date.

Day 3: 2024-02-29

CATEGORY 2

WHAT Minor coastal flooding possible but unlikely to cause significant impact.

WHEN Highest risk near the times of high tide at 07:24 AM and again at 8:30 PM PST.

IMPACTS Potential for minor overflow in the most vulnerable shorelines and low-lying areas, but no significant damage expected.

ADDITIONAL DETAILS...

The barometric pressure on this day during high tides is recorded at 1029.6500244140625 hPa, which is still relatively high compared to historical flood events. The NOAA Flood Likelihood Analysis indicates a low likelihood of flooding for this date as well, with a significant distance to the flood threshold. Wind direction data is not provided; however, based on the available data, the risk remains categorized as minor.

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

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 final decision-making in flood-related situations and adhere to any advisories or evacuation orders that may be issued.
