Flood Watch

Redondo Beach, WA

Day 1: 2024-05-30

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 9:00 AM to 11:00 AM PST.

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

ADDITIONAL DETAILS...

The barometric pressure is forecasted to be above the threshold that historically indicates severe weather conditions and potential flooding. The high tide at 9:18 AM with a pressure of 1009.7 hPa does not coincide with a pressure low enough to suggest a significant flood risk. However, the tide height is not provided; thus, based on NOAA's low flood likelihood prediction and the absence of critical pressure levels, the risk remains minor.

Day 2: 2024-05-31

CATEGORY 2

WHAT Continued minor coastal flooding potential with limited impact.

WHEN Highest risk near the time of high tide at 10:54 AM PST.

IMPACTS Similar minor impacts as Day 1 with possible nuisance flooding in susceptible areas.

ADDITIONAL DETAILS...

The barometric pressure during the high tides remains well above the historical flooding event thresholds, indicating a stable weather pattern less conducive to flooding. The NOAA flood likelihood remains low, and the tide heights are not reaching levels that have historically resulted in significant flooding events in Redondo Beach, WA.

Day 3: 2024-06-01

CATEGORY 2

WHAT Slight increase in coastal flooding potential due to higher tide levels.

WHEN Highest risk near the time of high tide at 12:36 PM PST.

IMPACTS Potential for slightly more pronounced impacts than previous days, including minor inundation of very low-lying areas.

ADDITIONAL DETAILS...

The barometric pressure is slightly lower on this day compared to previous days but still not indicative of severe weather conditions that could lead to major flooding. The NOAA flood likelihood remains low, and while the tide height is not specified, it is assumed not to exceed thresholds that would result in significant flooding based on available data.

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. Consult local authorities or experts for more detailed information and adhere to any advisories or evacuation orders.
