Redondo Beach, WA
CATEGORY 3
WHAT Minor coastal flooding expected. Possible inundation of up to 0.5 feet above ground level near shorelines and low-lying areas.
*WHEN From 3:30 AM to 5:00 PM PST.
IMPACTS Minor flooding of low-lying areas, parks, and roads. Isolated road closures possible.
The barometric pressure readings for the high tides on this day are significantly higher than the threshold that has historically led to severe flooding events. The pressure readings of 1010.4299926757812 hPa and 1010.4099731445312 hPa during the high tides are indicative of less severe weather conditions compared to past Category 4 or higher events. The NOAA Flood Likelihood Analysis indicates a low likelihood of flooding with a 0.0% chance, which aligns with the pressure data suggesting minimal flood risk. However, given the historical data and the fact that high tides are occurring, there is still a need for caution.
CATEGORY 2
WHAT Coastal flooding is not expected, but vigilance is advised during high tide times.
WHEN High tide peaks at approximately 4:12 AM and again at 3:18 PM PST.
IMPACTS No significant impacts expected, but localized pooling of water in low-lying coastal areas may occur.
On this day, the barometric pressure during high tides is slightly lower than on Day 1 but still well above the threshold associated with significant flooding events. The pressures of 1007.1799926757812 hPa and 1009.5700073242188 hPa do not suggest an elevated risk of severe weather that could lead to flooding. NOAA's Flood Likelihood Analysis continues to show a low likelihood of flooding for this date.
CATEGORY 1
WHAT No coastal flooding expected under current weather conditions.
WHEN Throughout the day, especially during high tide times at approximately 4:30 AM and again at 4:00 PM PST.
IMPACTS No impacts from coastal flooding are anticipated based on current data.
The barometric pressure readings for Day 3 are even higher than the previous days, with readings of 1012.1500244140625 hPa and 1012.6500244140625 hPa during high tides, indicating stable weather conditions and a very low risk of flooding. The NOAA Flood Likelihood Analysis supports this assessment with a continued low likelihood prediction for this date.
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.
