Redondo Beach, WA
CATEGORY 2
WHAT
Conditions are normal with no risk of flooding expected.
WHEN
High tide occurs at 10:48 AM PST.
IMPACTS
No flooding impacts expected.
On November 8, 2024, the high tide at 10:48 AM PST is predicted to reach 19.120 ft with a barometric pressure of 1025.6 hPa. This pressure is significantly higher than during historical flood events, indicating stable atmospheric conditions. Wind speeds are low, around 6 mph from the south-southeast (approximately 170 degrees). NOAA predicts a 0.0% likelihood of flooding, with the tide being 2.05 meters below the flood threshold. Compared to the Category 3 event on 12/27/2023, which had a lower barometric pressure (1006.1 hPa) and lower tide height (17.460 ft), today's conditions present no flood risk.
CATEGORY 3
WHAT
Tides are higher than usual, close to levels that have previously led to minor flooding, but flooding is unlikely.
WHEN
High tide occurs at 11:42 AM PST.
IMPACTS
Minimal impacts expected. Minor overland flow is possible in extremely low-lying areas, but significant flooding is not anticipated.
On November 9, 2024, the high tide at 11:42 AM PST is predicted to reach 19.230 ft with a barometric pressure of 1008.25 hPa. This pressure is higher than during historical flood events but lower than the previous day, indicating slightly less stable conditions, though still not indicative of severe weather. Wind speeds are low, around 5 mph from the southeast (approximately 158 degrees). NOAA forecasts a 0.0% likelihood of flooding, with the tide being 1.96 meters below the flood threshold. While the tide height is higher than in the historical Category 3 event, the higher barometric pressure and low wind speeds reduce the risk. It is close to a flood event and worth monitoring, but flooding is unlikely.
CATEGORY 2
WHAT
Conditions are normal with no risk of flooding expected.
WHEN
High tide occurs at 12:24 PM PST.
IMPACTS
No flooding impacts expected.
On November 10, 2024, the high tide at 12:24 PM PST is predicted to reach 19.444 ft with a barometric pressure of 1025.2 hPa. The high barometric pressure suggests stable atmospheric conditions. Wind speeds are low, around 3 mph from the south (approximately 175 degrees). NOAA predicts a 0.0% likelihood of flooding, with the tide being 1.78 meters below the flood threshold. Despite the slightly higher tide compared to previous days, the high barometric pressure and low wind speeds indicate no flood risk, similar to Category 1 conditions.
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.
