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 6:00 AM to 9:00 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 past flooding events, suggesting less severe weather conditions. The high tide at 06:36 with a mean pressure MSL of 1029.3800048828125 hPa is not indicative of a major flood risk, especially when compared to historical Category 3 events or higher. The NOAA Flood Likelihood Analysis indicates a low likelihood of flooding for this date, which aligns with the absence of critical factors such as low barometric pressure and extreme high tides.
CATEGORY 2
WHAT Coastal conditions expected to be stable with minimal risk of flooding.
WHEN Throughout the day, with attention to the high tide at 7:00 AM PST.
IMPACTS No significant impacts expected. Normal tidal conditions with no anticipated disruption.
The barometric pressure remains high at a mean MSL of 1033.6600341796875 hPa during the high tide, which is not conducive to flooding when compared to historical data. The NOAA Flood Likelihood Analysis continues to show a low likelihood of flooding for this date. The weather data does not indicate any significant changes that would alter the flood risk assessment from Day 1.
CATEGORY 3
WHAT Elevated risk of coastal flooding due to higher tide levels. Potential for water inundation in more susceptible areas.
WHEN High risk during high tides at 7:24 AM and again at 8:30 PM PST.
IMPACTS Possible minor property damage in low-lying coastal areas. Increased risk of road closures and minor disruptions to daily activities near the shore.
On this day, the barometric pressure is slightly lower than on previous days but still relatively high at a mean MSL of 1030.1300048828125 hPa, which does not typically coincide with severe flooding events. However, given that there are two high tides on this day and considering the historical data, there is an elevated risk compared to the previous days. The NOAA Flood Likelihood Analysis maintains a low likelihood percentage, but due to the dual high tides, vigilance is advised.
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.
