WHAT No significant flooding expected. Coastal conditions remain within normal ranges.
WHEN All day on October 9, 2024.
IMPACTS No flooding impacts anticipated.
On October 9, 2024, the barometric pressure during the high tide at 19:12 is 1009.47 hPa, which is significantly higher than the pressures observed during historical flooding events. The maximum tide height is approximately 18.15 ft at 10:12, which is slightly higher than the tide height during the historical Category 3 event on 12/27/2023 (17.46 ft). However, the elevated barometric pressure reduces the likelihood of flooding. Wind speeds are low, and NOAA's flood likelihood analysis indicates a low likelihood of flooding with a 0.0% chance. Based on these factors, the flood potential is categorized as Category 2.

WHEN All day on October 10, 2024.
IMPACTS No flooding impacts anticipated.
On October 10, 2024, the barometric pressure during the high tide at 11:30 is 1009.15 hPa, which remains above the thresholds associated with higher flood risks. The maximum tide height is again around 18.15 ft at 10:12, similar to Day 1. Wind conditions are calm, and NOAA's flood likelihood remains low at 0.0%. Comparing these conditions with historical events, the combination of high barometric pressure and moderate tide levels suggests a low risk of flooding, resulting in a classification of Category 2.

WHAT No significant flooding expected. Coastal conditions remain within normal ranges.
WHEN All day on October 11, 2024.
IMPACTS No flooding impacts anticipated.
On October 11, 2024, the barometric pressure during the high tide at 12:42 is 1013.33 hPa, which is significantly higher than the pressures observed during any historical flood events. The maximum tide height reaches approximately 18.35 ft, slightly higher than previous days but still below levels associated with higher flood risk categories. Wind speeds are minimal, and NOAA's flood likelihood analysis continues to indicate a low likelihood of flooding with a 0.0% chance. Given these factors, the flood potential remains low and is categorized as Category 2.
