Redondo Beach, WA
CATEGORY 2
WHAT
No risk of flooding is expected. Tides are forecast to peak around 17 ft, which is well below heights associated with previous flooding events in Redondo Beach. Barometric pressure readings around 1001–1009 hPa are not low enough to indicate flood concerns, and NOAA’s likelihood assessment is 0%.
WHEN
Highest tides expected near 08:00 AM and again near 11:48 PM PST.
IMPACTS
No flooding impacts anticipated. Normal marine conditions along the shoreline, with no projected inundation.
• The tide heights remain under the 20 ft range frequently seen in moderate flooding events (Category 3 and above).
• Barometric pressure is not nearing the historically lower readings (< 992.8 hPa) that have contributed to bigger flood risks in the past.
• NOAA’s Flood Likelihood indicator for 2025-03-21 remains at 0.0% with a large negative distance to the flooding threshold.
CATEGORY 2
WHAT
No risk of flooding is expected. Tides reach approximately mid to upper 16 ft range, and atmospheric pressure above 1009 hPa keeps conditions stable. NOAA data notes 0% flood likelihood.
WHEN
Highest tides forecast late afternoon into early evening (around 15:00 and 18:24 PST).
IMPACTS
No significant flooding or property impacts expected. Marine and shoreline areas remain unaffected.
• Historically, Category 3 or higher events generally involve tides over ~17–20 ft combined with much lower barometric pressure.
• With pressure remaining above 1009 hPa, the risk remains negligible.
• NOAA’s Flood Likelihood indicator for 2025-03-22 continues at 0.0%, reinforcing the low risk assessment.
CATEGORY 2
WHAT
No risk of flooding is expected. Although one of the high tides may reach approximately 17 ft, the barometric pressure (995–1003 hPa) is not sufficiently low to elevate the risk and remains above key historical flood-trigger thresholds. NOAA’s forecast again indicates 0% flood likelihood.
WHEN
Early morning (around 01:24 AM) and mid-morning (10:12 AM) have the highest projected tides.
IMPACTS
No flooding impacts expected for coastal roads, parks, or low-lying waterfronts.
• Even though pressure dips below 1000 hPa at times, it is not near the 992.8 hPa range historically linked to more significant flooding.
• Tide levels remain under ~20 ft, a common factor in moderate to severe floods.
• NOAA’s analysis for 2025-03-23 still indicates a 0.0% chance of tidal flooding.
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.
