Flood Watch
Redondo Beach, WA
Day 1: November 21, 2024
CATEGORY 1
WHAT No risk of flooding expected. Normal weather conditions with regular tidal patterns.
WHEN N/A
IMPACTS No impacts anticipated. No flooding expected.
ADDITIONAL DETAILS...
- Barometric Pressure: High barometric pressures of 1026.12 hPa and 1032.12 hPa during high tides. These values are significantly higher than pressures observed during historical flood events, such as the Category 5 event with a pressure of 978.4 hPa.
- Tide Heights: Predicted maximum tide heights around 19.76 feet, which is lower than historical flooding events that had tide heights exceeding 21 feet.
- Wind Conditions: Light winds ranging from 1 to 4 mph with varying directions, not aligning with wind patterns that have contributed to past flooding.
- NOAA High Tide Flooding Likelihood: NOAA indicates a low flood likelihood of 0.1%, with water levels expected to be 1.4 meters below the flood threshold.
Comparing these conditions with historical data, there is no significant risk of flooding on this day.
Day 2: November 22, 2024
CATEGORY 1
WHAT No risk of flooding expected. Weather conditions remain stable with expected tidal variations.
WHEN N/A
IMPACTS No impacts anticipated. No flooding expected.
ADDITIONAL DETAILS...
- Barometric Pressure: Elevated barometric pressures of 1033.01 hPa and 1031.97 hPa during high tides, much higher than pressures during historical flooding events.
- Tide Heights: Maximum predicted tide heights are below levels associated with past flooding incidents.
- Wind Conditions: Moderate winds between 5 to 10 mph, with directions not associated with increased flood risks in the area.
- NOAA High Tide Flooding Likelihood: NOAA reports a low flood likelihood of 0.0%, with water levels expected to be 1.65 meters below the flood threshold.
The absence of low barometric pressure and significant tide heights indicates no flood risk when compared to historical events.
Day 3: November 23, 2024
CATEGORY 1
WHAT No risk of flooding expected. Continuation of normal weather and tidal conditions.
WHEN N/A
IMPACTS No impacts anticipated. No flooding expected.
ADDITIONAL DETAILS...
- Barometric Pressure: Barometric pressure remains high at 1027.30 hPa during the high tide, considerably higher than pressures observed in historical flooding events.
- Tide Heights: Predicted tide heights are below the thresholds that have previously resulted in flooding, such as the Category 4 event with a tide height of over 21 feet.
- Wind Conditions: Wind speeds are moderate, and directions do not align with those that have historically contributed to flooding.
- NOAA High Tide Flooding Likelihood: NOAA indicates a low flood likelihood of 0.0%, with water levels expected to be 1.85 meters below the flood threshold.
Based on these factors and historical comparisons, there is no anticipated flood risk on this day.
PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...
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.
