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 4:00 PM to 7:00 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 associated with past flooding events, suggesting less severe weather conditions. The high tide at 17:30 with a mean pressure MSL of 1005.0599975585938 hPa does not approach the critical low-pressure values seen in historical Category 4 or higher events. However, the tide height is not provided; if it were to exceed 16 Ft, the risk could increase. NOAA's Flood Likelihood Analysis indicates a low likelihood of flooding for this date, which aligns with the absence of critical pressure levels and historical data comparisons.
CATEGORY 3
WHAT Elevated risk of coastal flooding. Potential for up to 1 foot of inundation above ground level in vulnerable areas.
WHEN From 5:00 PM to 8:00 PM PST.
IMPACTS Increased flooding of low-lying areas and roads, with several road closures possible. Minor property damage may occur in particularly vulnerable locations.
The barometric pressure is lower on this day, nearing the threshold that has historically indicated more significant flood events. The high tide at 18:06 with a mean pressure MSL of 1000.9299926757812 hPa is closer to concerning levels but still above the critical threshold seen in Category 4 or higher events. The NOAA Flood Likelihood Analysis maintains a low likelihood rating for this date, but the proximity to lower pressure thresholds warrants a slightly higher category rating than Day 1.
CATEGORY 2
WHAT Minor coastal flooding possible. Inundation up to 0.5 feet above ground level may occur near shorelines and low-lying areas.
WHEN From 5:00 PM to 8:00 PM PST.
IMPACTS Similar to Day 1, expect minor flooding of parks, walkways, and roads close to the waterline. Isolated road closures may be necessary.
On this day, the barometric pressure remains relatively stable and does not indicate severe weather conditions that could lead to significant flooding. The high tide at 18:42 with a mean pressure MSL of 1001.8900146484375 hPa is not indicative of major flood risks when compared to historical Category 4 or higher events. NOAA's analysis continues to show a low likelihood of flooding, supporting the categorization as a minor risk day similar to Day 1.
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.
