Flood Watch
Redondo Beach, WA

DayInfo1: Day 1: December 20, 2024

CATEGORY 1

WHAT Minor coastal flooding is not expected. Tide levels will reach a maximum of just over 20 feet, with barometric pressure remaining high.

WHEN No significant flooding risk timeframe as pressures remain high all day.

IMPACTS No substantial flooding impacts are anticipated. Low-lying areas remain largely unaffected.

ADDITIONAL DETAILS...

Weather observations indicate high barometric pressure throughout the day at 1027 hPa with max tide height reaching around 20.110 Ft. These conditions have historically not led to flooding in the area based on similar events. Additionally, NOAA's flood likelihood is low, providing further assurance.

DayInfo2: Day 2: December 21, 2024

CATEGORY 1

WHAT Coastal flooding is not expected as tide levels are slightly lower, with consistently high pressure.

WHEN No significant flooding risk timeframe as atmospheric pressure remains steady at 1027 hPa.

IMPACTS No anticipated impacts on low-lying areas due to stable conditions.

ADDITIONAL DETAILS...

High tide predictions maintain a similar pattern to Day 1 with pressures that historically correlate with non-flood events. NOAA's flood likelihood is further reduced for this day, reinforcing low risk.

DayInfo3: Day 3: December 22, 2024

CATEGORY 2

WHAT Slight increase in tide height to just under 21 feet. Despite this, high barometric pressure significantly lowers flooding risk.

WHEN No notable flooding risk timeframe due to stable pressures near 1024 hPa—all day.

IMPACTS Minor concerns in routinely susceptible areas, though no significant flooding impacts expected.

ADDITIONAL DETAILS...

Weather data shows continued high pressure and a lack of storm activity, with tides slightly higher than previous days but still within safe thresholds. NOAA's analysis supports a low probability of flooding.

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

Monitor later forecasts and remain vigilant for potential updates to flood conditions as more accurate observations become available. Residents in typically flood-prone zones should ensure readiness in case unexpected changes arise.
