Flood Watch

Redondo Beach, WA

Day 1: 2024-12-06

CATEGORY 1

WHAT
No risk of flooding expected. Normal tidal conditions with no anticipated impact on coastal areas.

WHEN
No specific time frame; normal conditions expected throughout the day.

IMPACTS
No flooding impacts anticipated. Coastal and low-lying areas remain unaffected.

ADDITIONAL DETAILS...

On 2024-12-06, the maximum predicted tide height is approximately 20.055 ft occurring around 09:18 AM. This level is below the 21 ft threshold associated with historical flooding events in the area. The barometric pressure is high at 1025.93 hPa, indicating stable atmospheric conditions and reducing the likelihood of severe weather-related impacts. Wind speeds are low, with a direction of SSE at 7 mph, and do not contribute to tidal surges. NOAA's Flood Likelihood is categorized as Low with a 1.0% likelihood, reinforcing the expectation of no flooding. Compared to past flood events, today's conditions do not present any flood risk.


Day 2: 2024-12-07

CATEGORY 1

WHAT
No risk of flooding expected. Normal tidal conditions with no anticipated impact on coastal areas.

WHEN
No specific time frame; normal conditions expected throughout the day.

IMPACTS
No flooding impacts anticipated. Coastal and low-lying areas remain unaffected.

ADDITIONAL DETAILS...

On 2024-12-07, the maximum predicted tide height is approximately 20.078 ft occurring around 10:00 AM. This is below the critical threshold of 21 ft that has been associated with previous flooding incidents. The barometric pressure remains high at 1024.39 hPa, suggesting steady and non-severe weather patterns. Wind speeds are moderate, averaging 11 mph from the SSW, but are not sufficient to impact tidal levels significantly. NOAA's Flood Likelihood remains Low with a 1.3% likelihood. Historical comparisons indicate that similar conditions have not resulted in flooding, indicating a continued low flood risk.


Day 3: 2024-12-08

CATEGORY 1

WHAT
No risk of flooding expected. Normal tidal conditions with no anticipated impact on coastal areas.

WHEN
No specific time frame; normal conditions expected throughout the day.

IMPACTS
No flooding impacts anticipated. Coastal and low-lying areas remain unaffected.

ADDITIONAL DETAILS...

On 2024-12-08, the maximum predicted tide height is approximately 20.14 ft occurring around 10:42 AM. This tide level is still below the 21 ft threshold linked to flooding risks. The barometric pressure is stable at 1024.52 hPa, indicating the absence of low-pressure systems that could contribute to adverse weather conditions. Wind conditions are calm, with speeds around 7 mph from the SSW, which are not expected to influence tidal activities. NOAA's Flood Likelihood is categorized as Low with a 1.5% likelihood. In comparison to historical flood events, such as the Category 5 event on 12/27/2022 with much lower pressure and higher tides, today's conditions show no significant risk of flooding.


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.
