Redondo Beach, WA
CATEGORY 2
WHAT
No flooding is expected. While the morning high tide will approach 20.0 ft, barometric pressure remains well above critical low-pressure thresholds, and winds are light.
WHEN
Highest tides around 05:24 AM PST and 04:48 PM PST.
IMPACTS
No notable coastal flooding impacts are anticipated at this time.
• The barometric pressure (approximately 1018 hPa) is significantly higher than the levels typically associated with moderate or severe coastal flooding in historical events.
• Wind speeds remain low compared to Category 3 or higher events.
• NOAA flood likelihood data is not available for this date, but given the relatively high pressure and historically moderate tides, significant flooding is unlikely.
CATEGORY 2
WHAT
No risk of flooding is expected. Although the morning high tide could exceed 20.0 ft, the barometric pressure is very high, and NOAA reports a low flood likelihood.
WHEN
Highest tides near 05:48 AM PST and 05:42 PM PST.
IMPACTS
No significant flooding concerns for low-lying areas or roadways.
• Barometric pressure readings (1024–1033 hPa) are notably higher than pressures seen in even moderate (Category 3) historical flood events.
• NOAA assigns only a 3.2% chance of flooding for this date, far lower than the 8–11% ranges observed in previous Category 3 scenarios.
• Wind speeds remain light, further reducing flood risk.
CATEGORY 2
WHAT
No flooding is expected. The projected high tide may reach slightly above 20.0 ft, but the barometric pressure remains quite high, and NOAA’s flood likelihood remains low.
WHEN
Highest tides around 06:18 AM PST and 06:42 PM PST.
IMPACTS
No notable impact to property or infrastructure anticipated.
• Barometric pressure of approximately 1031 hPa is much higher than the levels normally linked with coastal flooding.
• NOAA’s flood likelihood for this date is under 5%, significantly lower than previous Category 3 events with higher flood probabilities.
• Light winds from variable directions provide minimal onshore push, further decreasing flood potential.
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.
Categories 1-2: No risk of flooding.
Category 3: Close to a flood event and worth monitoring.
Category 4: Flooding is likely however, it is uncertain if this will cause major property damage.
Category 5: Likely to flood and cause property damage.
Categories 6-7: Extremely high risk of flooding and property damage.
