Day 1: 2024-04-16

CATEGORY 3

WHAT Minor coastal flooding expected. Possible inundation of up to 1 foot above ground level near shorelines and low-lying areas.

WHEN From high tide times around 00:30 AM and 10:24 AM PST.

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

ADDITIONAL DETAILS...

The barometric pressure readings for the high tides on this day are significantly higher than the threshold that has historically indicated severe flooding events. However, the tide heights are above 14 feet, which suggests a need for caution. The weather data indicates partly cloudy conditions with no significant precipitation, which reduces the risk of flooding. The wind speeds are moderate and not indicative of storm conditions that could drive higher water levels ashore.

CATEGORY 2

WHAT Low risk of coastal flooding.

WHEN Around high tide times at 01:30 AM and 11:54 AM PST.

IMPACTS No significant impacts expected. Normal tidal fluctuations may occur.

ADDITIONAL DETAILS...

The barometric pressure is stable and well above the critical threshold associated with historical flooding events in Redondo Beach, WA. Tide levels are not reaching the heights seen in past Category 4 or higher events. Weather conditions appear to be clear with no precipitation forecasted, further reducing the likelihood of flooding.

Day 3: 2024-04-18

CATEGORY 2

WHAT Low risk of coastal flooding.

WHEN Around high tide times at 02:12 AM and 13:18 PM PST.

IMPACTS No significant impacts expected. Normal tidal fluctuations may occur.

ADDITIONAL DETAILS...

On this day, the barometric pressure is even higher than on the previous days, indicating very stable weather conditions unlikely to contribute to flooding. The tide levels are similar to Day 2 and do not pose a significant threat when combined with the current weather data. The absence of NOAA flood risk data for this period also suggests a lower likelihood of flooding events.
