Redondo Beach, WA
CATEGORY 2
WHAT
No flooding is expected. Tides reach around 18.5 ft during the early morning hours, but the barometric pressure remains relatively high (approximately 1022 hPa), and NOAA forecasts a 0.0% flood likelihood.
WHEN
Highest tide near 02:00 PST and again late morning.
IMPACTS
No notable flooding impacts are anticipated. Low-lying areas and shorelines should not be affected.
On this date, conditions are not similar to past moderate or severe flood events (which typically involved either lower barometric pressure near or below 992 hPa or tides well above 20 ft). NOAA’s 0.0% likelihood further supports minimal risk.
CATEGORY 2
WHAT
No flooding is expected. Tides may approach 19 ft during the early morning hours, but barometric pressure is not exceptionally low (around 1017 hPa to 1008 hPa), and NOAA forecasts a 0.0% flood likelihood.
WHEN
Highest tides near 03:00 PST and midday.
IMPACTS
No significant flooding impacts. Low-lying roads, parks, and shorelines are unlikely to experience flood conditions.
Although the tide level is higher than Day 1, it remains below thresholds seen in historical Category 3 or 4 events. The barometric pressure is noticeably higher than in past severe events, keeping flood risk minimal.
CATEGORY 2
WHAT
No flooding is expected despite the tide peaking around 19.4 ft early in the morning. Barometric pressure (near 1004 hPa at peak tide) is below average but not low enough to pose a substantial flood risk, and NOAA forecasts a 0.0% flood likelihood.
WHEN
Highest risk window around 03:42 PST and again after midday.
IMPACTS
No known impacts. Even with a somewhat higher tide than the previous two days, conditions do not align with historical flooding episodes that involved extremely low pressure and higher tide levels.
This date shows the highest tide among the three days, but it remains under major flood thresholds (over 20 ft) seen in some past Category 3 or 4 events. The pressure is not near 992 hPa, further reducing flood 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.
