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 6:00 PM to 9:00 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 well above the threshold associated with historical flooding events, indicating less severe weather conditions and a lower likelihood of an extreme flooding event. The tide height is not reaching the levels seen in past Category 4 or 5 events, and NOAA's Flood Likelihood Analysis indicates a low likelihood of flooding. However, given the high tide at 8:42 PM with a pressure of 1001.3499755859375 hPa, there is a slight risk that needs to be monitored.
CATEGORY 3
WHAT Elevated risk of coastal flooding. Potential for up to 1 foot of inundation above ground level in low-lying areas near the shoreline.
WHEN From 7:00 AM to 10:00 AM PST and again from 7:00 PM to 10:00 PM PST.
IMPACTS Moderate flooding of coastal areas, with some roads potentially becoming impassable. Property damage is unlikely but possible in very low-lying areas.
The barometric pressure during the high tide in the morning is relatively low at 998.0499877929688 hPa, which is closer to historical events that have caused flooding. The evening high tide has a higher pressure reading, suggesting less risk during that time. NOAA's Flood Likelihood Analysis still indicates a low likelihood of flooding, but given the lower barometric pressure in the morning, there is an increased risk compared to 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 8:00 AM to 11:00 AM PST and again from 8:00 PM to 11:00 PM PST.
IMPACTS Minor and brief flooding of the most vulnerable shorelines and low-lying areas. Some roads may be temporarily covered with water.
Barometric pressure readings for both high tides are consistent at 1001.4099731445312 hPa, which is not indicative of severe weather conditions that could lead to major flooding events. The NOAA Flood Likelihood Analysis supports this with a low likelihood prediction for this day as well. The risk remains minor but should still be monitored due to the high tide levels.
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 the most current information and make decisions based on their guidance combined with these forecasts.
