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 06:00 AM PST.

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

ADDITIONAL DETAILS...

The high tide at 04:36 AM on 2024-09-23 is expected to reach a height of 15.154 feet with a barometric pressure of 1009.88 hPa. This pressure is higher than the critical threshold of 992.8 hPa, reducing the likelihood of severe flooding. Wind speeds are relatively low at around 4 km/h from the SSE direction, which is not significant enough to exacerbate flooding conditions. Historical data indicates that similar conditions have resulted in minor flooding events.

Day 2: 2024-09-24

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 07:00 AM PST.

ADDITIONAL DETAILS...

The high tide at 05:30 AM on 2024-09-24 is expected to reach a height of 13.282 feet with a barometric pressure of 1009.93 hPa. While the pressure is still above the critical threshold, the tide height is significant enough to warrant close monitoring. Wind speeds are around 6 km/h from the NNE direction, which could slightly increase the risk of flooding but not significantly. Historical data shows that similar conditions have led to moderate flooding events.

Day 3: 2024-09-25

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 11:00 AM to 01:00 PM PST.

IMPACTS Moderate flooding of low-lying areas, parks, and roads. Some road closures possible.

ADDITIONAL DETAILS...

The high tide at 12:42 PM on 2024-09-25 is expected to reach a height of 18.512 feet with a barometric pressure of 1011.22 hPa. The pressure is well above the critical threshold, reducing the likelihood of severe flooding despite the high tide height. Wind speeds are around 12 km/h from the SSE direction, which could contribute slightly to the risk but not significantly enough to cause major concerns. Historical data indicates that similar conditions have resulted in moderate flooding events.
