Redondo Beach, WA
CATEGORY 2
WHAT No risk of flooding expected. Normal coastal conditions prevail with no anticipated inundation.
WHEN N/A
IMPACTS No impacts anticipated.
The barometric pressure during the first high tide at 7:54 AM is high at 1012.0 hPa, indicating stable atmospheric conditions. The tide height reaches approximately 20.084 feet, which, although significant, does not pose a flooding risk without accompanying low barometric pressure or severe weather. Wind speeds are low, ranging from 1 to 4 km/h, and wind directions vary without a pattern that would exacerbate tidal effects. NOAA's Flood Likelihood for today is low at 1.3%, with a substantial distance below the flood threshold. Compared to historical events, such as the Category 3 event on 12/27/2023 with lower tide heights and higher flood risk, today's conditions indicate no flooding concern.
CATEGORY 2
WHAT No risk of flooding expected. Coastal conditions remain normal with no expected inundation.
WHEN N/A
IMPACTS No impacts anticipated.
The barometric pressure remains high at 1013.13 hPa during the morning high tide at 8:36 AM, suggesting continued stable weather. The tide height is approximately 20.063 feet, similar to Day 1, but without the critical low barometric pressure needed to elevate flood risk. Wind speeds are low to moderate, between 3 to 6 km/h, primarily from the south, which does not significantly impact tidal conditions. NOAA's Flood Likelihood is low at 1.0%, further confirming minimal flood risk. When compared to historical Category 4 events with lower pressures and higher tide heights, today's conditions do not align with scenarios that have led to flooding.
CATEGORY 2
WHAT No risk of flooding expected. Stable coastal conditions with no anticipated flooding.
WHEN N/A
IMPACTS No impacts anticipated.
Barometric pressure is very high at 1023.88 hPa during the high tide at 9:18 AM, indicating strong atmospheric stability. The tide height reaches around 20.055 feet. Despite the significant tide height, the high barometric pressure greatly reduces flood potential. Wind speeds are moderate, ranging from 4 to 10 km/h, coming from the SSE, which does not contribute to increased flooding risk. NOAA's Flood Likelihood remains low at 1.0%. Historical data from Category 4 and 5 events show much lower barometric pressures and higher tide heights, conditions not present today, indicating no expected flooding.
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.
