CATEGORY 3
WHAT Minor coastal flooding expected. Possible inundation of up to 1 foot above ground level near shorelines and low-lying areas.
*WHEN From 05:48 AM to 06:12 PM PST.
IMPACTS Minor flooding of low-lying areas, parks, and roads. Isolated road closures possible.
On September 5th, the high tide at 05:48 AM is expected to reach a height of 17.555 feet with a barometric pressure of 1008.57 hPa. The second high tide at 06:12 PM will reach a height of 18.823 feet with a barometric pressure of 1011.27 hPa. These conditions are similar to the Category 3 event on 12/27/2023, which had a tide height of 17.460 feet and a barometric pressure of 1006.1 hPa. The wind direction is from the WNW, which could exacerbate flooding conditions by pushing more seawater towards the coast.

Step-by-step analysis for each day:
Both pressures are higher than the critical threshold (992.8 hPa), indicating less severe weather conditions.
Tide Height:
These heights are significant but not extreme compared to historical Category events.
Wind Direction:
WNW direction could push seawater towards the coast, increasing flood risk slightly.
NOAA High Tide Flooding Likelihood:
Low likelihood (0%) for this date.
Synthesis:
Both pressures are higher than the critical threshold (992 .8 hPa), indicating less severe weather conditions.
Tide Height:
3 . Wind Direction: - NNE direction could push seawater towards the coast, increasing flood risk slightly .
