Redondo Beach, WA
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 6:00 PM to 11:59 PM PST.
IMPACTS Minor flooding of low-lying areas, parks, and roads. Isolated road closures possible.
The barometric pressure is significantly higher than the threshold that indicates severe weather conditions and potential flooding. However, the high tide at 23:18 with a mean pressure MSL of 1004.02001953125 hPa, although not as low as in previous severe events, still warrants attention due to the proximity to historical Category 3 events. The wind direction from the NNW is not directly contributing to pushing seawater towards the coast, which may reduce the risk of flooding.
CATEGORY 2
WHAT Low risk of coastal flooding. Normal tidal conditions expected.
WHEN Throughout the day.
IMPACTS No significant impacts expected. Usual tidal fluctuations with no anticipated disruption.
The high tide at 09:06 with a mean pressure MSL of 995.1799926757812 hPa is closer to the threshold that could indicate potential flooding risks. However, NOAA's Flood Likelihood Analysis indicates a low likelihood of flooding for this date, with a flood threshold distance of -2.39m, which suggests that the tide levels are not expected to reach critical levels that would result in flooding.
CATEGORY 2
WHAT Low risk of coastal flooding. Normal tidal conditions expected.
WHEN Throughout the day.
IMPACTS No significant impacts expected. Usual tidal fluctuations with no anticipated disruption.
The high tides for this day have corresponding mean pressure MSL readings well above the threshold for severe weather conditions and potential flooding. The NOAA Flood Likelihood Analysis also indicates a low likelihood of flooding for this date, with a flood threshold distance of -2.24m, reinforcing the expectation of no significant flood 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.
