CATEGORY 2

WHAT
No risk of flooding despite a slightly higher tide of around 20.15 feet in the early morning (05:54 PST). The barometric pressure is still forecast to be high (above 1025 hPa), which helps keep the flood risk low.

IMPACTS
No immediate flooding concerns, and coastal roads and nearby areas should remain clear.

ADDITIONAL DETAILS...

While the tide is near 20 feet, it remains below levels seen in historical Category 3 or higher events, and barometric pressure is substantially higher than during past floods. NOAA’s flood likelihood for 2025-01-29 is still only 1.7%, indicating conditions are not supportive of flooding.
