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 8:00 PM to 10:00 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. The high tide at 21:36 has a mean pressure MSL of 1006.1500244140625 hPa, which is above the threshold of concern for flooding. The NOAA High Tide Flooding Likelihood indicates a low chance of flooding for this day, with a likelihood percent of 0.0%. The tide height is not provided, but given the pressure data and NOAA's forecast, the risk is categorized as low.
CATEGORY 3
WHAT Elevated risk of coastal flooding. Potential for water levels to reach up to 1 foot above ground level in some areas.
WHEN From 6:00 AM to 8:00 AM PST and again from 9:00 PM to 11:00 PM PST.
IMPACTS Moderate flooding of coastal areas, with some roads potentially becoming impassable. Property damage is unlikely but possible in very low-lying areas.
The morning high tide at 07:24 has a mean pressure MSL of 997.6199951171875 hPa, which is closer to the threshold that could indicate potential flooding risks. However, the evening high tide at 22:30 shows an increased mean pressure MSL of 1012.8099975585938 hPa, suggesting less risk during that time. NOAA's forecast maintains a low likelihood of flooding for this day as well.
CATEGORY 2
WHAT Minor coastal flooding possible with minimal impacts expected.
WHEN Highest risk near the time of high tide at approximately 11:30 AM and again at around midnight.
IMPACTS Low-lying areas and parks may experience minor inundation, but significant property damage is not expected.
Both high tides for this day have a mean pressure MSL of 1013.25 hPa, which is well above the threshold associated with significant flood events. The NOAA High Tide Flooding Likelihood remains low, with no percent likelihood given for this date. The absence of strong winds or low barometric pressure suggests that any flooding would not reach the severity seen in historical Category 4 or higher events.
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.
