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 3:00 AM to 5:00 AM PST and again from 2:00 PM to 4:00 PM PST.
IMPACTS Minor flooding of low-lying areas, parks, and roads. Isolated road closures possible.
The barometric pressure during the high tides of 1006.5 hPa and 1009.1 hPa, although lower than the average, is not as low as the historical events that caused more severe flooding. The tide heights are not reaching the thresholds observed in Category 4 or higher events. Wind direction data is not provided; however, based on the NOAA flood likelihood being low at 0.0%, the risk remains categorized at a lower level.
CATEGORY 2
WHAT Coastal conditions expected to be mostly stable with a very low risk of flooding.
WHEN The entire day, with particular attention during high tide times.
IMPACTS No significant impacts expected. Normal tidal conditions with no action required.
The barometric pressure is relatively high at around 1010.6 hPa to 1026.3 hPa during high tides, which greatly reduces the risk of flooding compared to historical events that had much lower pressures. NOAA's flood likelihood remains low at 0.0%, and the tide levels are not near the thresholds that have historically resulted in flooding.
CATEGORY 2
WHAT No significant coastal flooding expected due to stable weather conditions.
WHEN Throughout the day, despite high tides.
IMPACTS No anticipated impacts from tides under normal weather conditions.
The barometric pressure is high at around 1025.6 hPa during the high tide event, which suggests stable weather conditions and a very low likelihood of flooding. The NOAA flood likelihood analysis supports this with a low likelihood percentage of 0.0%. The tide height does not approach concerning thresholds, and no significant wind data is provided to suggest an increased 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 final decision-making in flood-related situations and adhere to any advisories or evacuation orders that may be issued.
