Redondo Beach, WA
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 3:00 PM to 7:00 PM PST.
IMPACTS Minor flooding of low-lying areas, parks, and roads. Isolated road closures possible.
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 levels are approaching heights that have been associated with minor flooding in the past. The wind direction is not provided, but given the historical data, winds from the W/NW could contribute to the flood risk. NOAA's Flood Likelihood Analysis indicates a low likelihood of flooding for this date, which aligns with the absence of extreme weather indicators in the provided data.
CATEGORY 2
WHAT Coastal conditions expected to be mostly stable with a very low chance of flooding.
WHEN The entire day presents a low risk for flooding.
IMPACTS No significant impacts expected. Normal tidal conditions with no anticipated disruption to daily activities.
The barometric pressure is relatively high and stable, suggesting calm weather conditions. Tide levels are not reaching heights that have been associated with past flooding events. NOAA's Flood Likelihood Analysis supports this assessment with a low likelihood of flooding for this date. Wind direction and speed are not specified, but without other indicators of severe weather, their impact is presumed to be minimal.
CATEGORY 2
WHAT No significant coastal flooding expected under current conditions.
WHEN Low risk throughout the day.
IMPACTS No anticipated impacts from tidal activity. Daily life and property should remain unaffected by coastal conditions.
Barometric pressure remains high on this day, indicating stable weather conditions unlikely to contribute to flooding. Tide levels are below those associated with previous Category 3 or higher events. NOAA's Flood Likelihood Analysis reports a low likelihood of flooding, which is consistent with the absence of concerning weather patterns or tide levels in the provided data.
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 that may be issued.
