Redondo Beach, WA
CATEGORY 2
WHAT Minor coastal flooding expected. Possible inundation of up to 1 foot above ground level near shorelines and low-lying areas.
*WHEN From 04:00 AM to 08:00 AM PST.
IMPACTS Minor flooding of low-lying areas, parks, and roads. Isolated road closures possible.
The barometric pressure for the high tide at 04:36 AM is 1009.86 hPa, which is higher than the critical threshold of 992.8 hPa. The tide height at this time is significant but not extreme compared to historical Category 4 and 5 events. Wind speeds are relatively low at around 4 mph from the south, which does not significantly exacerbate flooding risk. NOAA's flood likelihood for this date is low, with a likelihood percent of 0.0%.
CATEGORY 3
WHAT Moderate coastal flooding expected. Possible inundation of up to 2 feet above ground level near shorelines and low-lying areas.
WHEN From 05:00 AM to 09:00 AM PST.
IMPACTS Moderate flooding of low-lying areas, parks, and roads. Some road closures possible.
The barometric pressure for the high tide at 05:30 AM is 1009.63 hPa, which is still above the critical threshold but lower than the previous day. The tide height is higher than on Day 1, increasing the risk slightly. Wind speeds remain low at around 5 mph from the north, which does not significantly impact the flooding risk. NOAA's flood likelihood remains low with a likelihood percent of 0.0%.
CATEGORY 3
WHAT Moderate coastal flooding expected. Possible inundation of up to 2 feet above ground level near shorelines and low-lying areas.
WHEN From 06:00 AM to 10:00 AM PST.
IMPACTS Moderate flooding of low-lying areas, parks, and roads. Some road closures possible.
The barometric pressure for the high tide at 12:42 PM is 1010.52 hPa, which is well above the critical threshold. The tide height is significant but not extreme compared to historical Category 4 and 5 events. Wind speeds are moderate at around 6 mph from the south-southwest, which may slightly increase the risk but not significantly. NOAA's flood likelihood remains low with a likelihood percent of 0.0%.
You 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.
Based on these analyses, Days 2 and 3 present a moderate risk (Category 3) due to higher tide heights despite relatively high barometric pressures and low wind speeds. Day 1 presents a lower risk (Category 2) due to slightly lower tide heights and higher barometric pressure.
Always consult local authorities or experts for final decision-making in flood-related situations.
