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 12:00 PM to 2:00 PM PST.
IMPACTS Minor flooding of low-lying areas, parks, and roads. Isolated road closures possible.
The high tide at 12:42 PM on 2024-09-25 is expected to reach a height of approximately 18.201 feet with a barometric pressure of 1016.6 hPa. This pressure is significantly higher than the threshold for severe flooding (992.8 hPa). Wind speeds are relatively low, and the wind direction is not expected to exacerbate flooding conditions. Historical data indicates that similar conditions have resulted in minor flooding without significant property damage.

IMPACTS Minor flooding of low-lying areas, parks, and roads. Isolated road closures possible.
The high tide at 11:48 PM on 2024-09-26 is expected to reach a height of approximately 17.659 feet with a barometric pressure of 1017.2 hPa. This pressure is well above the critical threshold for severe flooding. Wind speeds and directions are not expected to significantly impact flood conditions. Historical comparisons suggest that these conditions will likely result in minor flooding without major property damage.
CATEGORY 3
WHAT Moderate coastal flooding possible. Inundation of up to 2 feet above ground level near shorelines and low-lying areas.
WHEN From 2:00 PM to 4:00 PM PST.
IMPACTS Moderate flooding of low-lying areas, parks, and roads. Some road closures possible, with minor property damage in vulnerable areas.
The high tide at 2:42 PM on 2024-09-27 is expected to reach a height of approximately 18.920 feet with a barometric pressure of 1013.7 hPa. While this pressure is higher than the critical threshold for severe flooding, it is lower than the previous days, indicating a slightly increased risk. Wind speeds are moderate but not extreme, and the wind direction does not significantly contribute to flood risk. Historical data suggests that these conditions could lead to moderate flooding, warranting closer monitoring.
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.
This analysis integrates weather observations, tide data, and barometric pressure while comparing with historical events for insights. The categorization reflects the potential flood risk based on the provided data and historical benchmarks. Always consult local authorities or experts for final decision-making in flood-related situations.
