Redondo Beach, WA
CATEGORY 3
WHAT Close to a flood event and worth monitoring, but unlikely to cause flood damage.
WHEN From 7:00 AM to 9:00 AM PST during the morning high tide.
IMPACTS Minor flooding of low-lying areas and roads near the shoreline. Isolated road closures possible.
On Day 1, a high tide is expected at 8:30 AM with a tide height of approximately 20.712 ft. The barometric pressure is forecasted to be around 1023.96 hPa, which is significantly higher than pressures observed during historical severe flood events. This higher pressure suggests less severe weather conditions. NOAA's flood likelihood is categorized as High with a likelihood percent of 10.8% and a distance to the flood threshold of -0.55 m, indicating tides are above the flood threshold but comparable to historical Category 3 events. Wind speeds are moderate, and wind directions are not expected to contribute significantly to flooding conditions.

WHAT Close to a flood event and worth monitoring, but unlikely to cause flood damage.
WHEN From 7:30 AM to 9:30 AM PST during the morning high tide.
IMPACTS Minor flooding of coastal areas and low-lying roads. Isolated nuisance flooding possible.
Day 2 anticipates a high tide at 9:06 AM with a tide height of approximately 20.735 ft. The barometric pressure is expected to be around 1025.96 hPa, even higher than Day 1, indicating stable atmospheric conditions. NOAA reports a High flood likelihood with a likelihood percent of 15.8% and a distance to the flood threshold of -0.42 m. While the flood likelihood percent is slightly higher than Day 1, the high barometric pressure suggests that severe flooding is unlikely. Winds remain moderate without significant impact on tidal surges.
CATEGORY 3
WHAT Close to a flood event and worth monitoring, but unlikely to cause flood damage.
WHEN From 8:00 AM to 10:00 AM PST during the morning high tide.
IMPACTS Minor flooding in low-lying coastal areas. Minimal impact expected.
On Day 3, the high tide is expected at 9:42 AM with a tide height of approximately 20.685 ft. The barometric pressure is forecasted at 1021.11 hPa, slightly lower than previous days but still significantly higher than pressures associated with severe flood events in the past. NOAA's flood likelihood remains High with a likelihood percent of 11.3% and a distance to the flood threshold of -0.53 m. Wind conditions continue to be moderate, and no adverse wind directions are anticipated to influence flooding risk.
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.
