Flood Watch

Redondo Beach, WA

Day 1: 2024-06-09

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 7:00 PM to 10:00 PM PST.

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

ADDITIONAL DETAILS...

The barometric pressure during the high tide at 20:18 is significantly higher than the threshold that has historically led to severe flooding events. However, the tide height is not reaching the levels seen in Category 4 or higher events. Wind direction data is not provided, but given the low NOAA flood likelihood and the distance to the threshold, the risk remains moderate.

Day 2: 2024-06-10

CATEGORY 2

WHAT Low risk of coastal flooding. No significant impact expected.

WHEN The highest risk period is around the high tide at 6:12 AM PST.

IMPACTS Minimal impact with no significant flooding expected in coastal areas.

ADDITIONAL DETAILS...

The barometric pressure at the morning high tide is closer to historical flood event thresholds but still above critical levels. The tide height is lower than on Day 1, and NOAA's flood likelihood remains low, indicating a reduced risk of flooding compared to the previous day.

Day 3: 2024-06-11

CATEGORY 2

WHAT Low risk of coastal flooding. No significant impact expected.

WHEN The highest risk period is around the high tide at 7:06 AM PST and again at approximately 4:06 PM PST.

IMPACTS Minimal impact with no significant flooding expected in coastal areas.

ADDITIONAL DETAILS...

Barometric pressure remains stable and above critical thresholds for severe weather conditions. Tide heights are not reaching levels associated with major flood events in historical data. The NOAA flood likelihood analysis indicates a low chance of flooding, which aligns with the other data points to suggest a low risk for this day.

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 final decision-making in flood-related situations.
