CATEGORY 3
WHAT Close to a flood event; worth monitoring but unlikely to cause flood damage.
WHEN High tide expected around 12:00 PM PST on 2024-11-09.
IMPACTS Minor flooding of low-lying areas near shorelines possible. No significant property damage anticipated.
The highest tide on November 9th is expected to reach approximately 19.230 feet around midday, which is higher than the historical Category 3 event on December 27, 2023 (17.460 feet). However, the barometric pressure is forecasted to be 1009.12 hPa during this time, which is higher than the 1006.1 hPa observed in the past Category 3 event, indicating more stable weather conditions. Wind speeds are moderate, and NOAA's flood likelihood is low at 0.0%. Considering these factors, the situation warrants monitoring but is unlikely to cause significant flood damage.
CATEGORY 1
WHAT No risk of flooding expected.
WHEN N/A
IMPACTS No significant impacts anticipated.
On November 10th, the maximum tide height is projected to be approximately 19.380 feet at noon. The barometric pressure is notably high at 1027.82 hPa during the high tide, suggesting very stable atmospheric conditions. Wind speeds are minimal, and NOAA's flood likelihood remains low at 0.0%. All indicators point to no risk of flooding on this day.
CATEGORY 3
WHAT Close to a flood event; worth monitoring but unlikely to cause flood damage.
WHEN High tide expected around 1:00 PM PST on 2024-11-11.
IMPACTS Minor flooding of low-lying areas near shorelines possible. No significant property damage anticipated.
The highest tide on November 11th is anticipated to reach approximately 19.714 feet around early afternoon, exceeding the tide heights of previous Category 3 events but still below those of Category 4 events. The barometric pressure is forecasted at 1008.52 hPa, slightly lower than on Day 1 but still higher than pressures associated with more severe historical floods (e.g., 1002 hPa in past Category 4 events). Wind conditions are moderate, and NOAA's flood likelihood is low at 0.1%. These factors suggest that while the situation should be monitored, significant flooding is unlikely.
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.
