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 05:00 AM to 07:00 AM PST.
IMPACTS Minor flooding of low-lying areas, parks, and roads. Isolated road closures possible.
The barometric pressure on 2024-09-24 is relatively high at 1010.27 hPa during the high tide at 05:30 AM and 1011.93 hPa at 11:12 AM. The tide heights are significant but not extreme, with the highest being around 18.37 feet. Wind speeds are low, ranging from 4 to 9 kmph, and the wind direction is mostly from the north-northeast. Given these conditions, the likelihood of severe flooding is low, but minor coastal flooding could occur due to the high tide levels.

IMPACTS Minor flooding of low-lying areas, parks, and roads. Isolated road closures possible.
On 2024-09-25, the barometric pressure remains high at around 1016.28 hPa during the high tide at 12:42 PM and even higher at 1018.55 hPa at the high tide at 22:18 PM. The tide heights are again significant but not extreme, with the highest being around 18.51 feet. Wind speeds are low, ranging from 1 to 14 kmph, with wind directions varying from west-northwest to south-southwest. These conditions suggest a low likelihood of severe flooding but minor coastal flooding could still occur due to the high tide levels.

On 2024-09-26, the barometric pressure is relatively high at around 1017 hPa during the high tide at 03:30 AM and slightly lower at around 1014.60 hPa during the high tide at 23:48 PM. The tide heights are significant but not extreme, with the highest being around 18.75 feet. Wind speeds are moderate, ranging from 5 to 25 kmph, with wind directions varying from south-southeast to southwest. These conditions suggest a low likelihood of severe flooding but minor coastal flooding could still occur due to the high tide levels.
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 the provided data for Redondo Beach, WA over the next three days (2024-09-24 to 2024-09-26), the flood potential is categorized as Category 2 for each day. This assessment is based on relatively high barometric pressures (ranging from approximately 1010 hPa to over 1018 hPa) combined with significant but not extreme tide heights (ranging from approximately 17 feet to just over 18 feet). Wind speeds are generally low to moderate, and NOAA's flood likelihood analysis indicates a low probability of severe flooding for these dates.
While minor coastal flooding is possible due to high tides, especially in low-lying areas near shorelines, severe flooding and major property damage are unlikely under these conditions. It is advisable for residents in flood-prone areas to stay informed through local weather updates and be prepared for minor disruptions or road closures in affected areas.
