Redondo Beach, WA

Day 1: 2024-05-26

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 6:00 PM to 9:00 PM 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. The highest tide level is expected to be below the levels that have previously caused major flooding. However, the combination of overcast weather, consistent rain, and high tide may still result in minor coastal flooding. The wind direction from the south-southwest is not typically associated with severe flooding in this region.

Day 2: 2024-05-27

CATEGORY 2

WHAT Low risk of coastal flooding. Normal tidal conditions expected.

WHEN Throughout the day.

IMPACTS No significant impacts expected. Standard precautions for typical high tide events should be sufficient.

ADDITIONAL DETAILS...

Barometric pressure remains stable and relatively high, reducing the likelihood of severe weather conditions that could lead to flooding. Tide levels are expected to be normal with no significant deviation from typical patterns. Wind conditions are also not conducive to exacerbating tidal effects.

Day 3: 2024-05-28

CATEGORY 2

WHAT Low risk of coastal flooding. Normal tidal conditions expected.

WHEN Throughout the day.

IMPACTS No significant impacts expected. Standard precautions for typical high tide events should be sufficient.

ADDITIONAL DETAILS...

Similar to Day 2, barometric pressure is stable, and tide levels are within normal ranges. The weather conditions do not indicate a significant risk of flooding. The NOAA flood likelihood remains low, which aligns with the absence of concerning weather or tidal data for this date.

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

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.
