Redondo Beach, WA
CATEGORY 2
WHAT
No flooding is expected. Tide levels, while reaching around 19 ft late in the day, remain below historical flood levels. Barometric pressure is relatively high (above 1003 hPa during peak tides), and NOAA indicates a 0% flood likelihood.
WHEN
Highest tides near 09:42 AM and 11:42 PM PDT on 2025-05-20.
IMPACTS
No notable impacts. Low-lying or shoreline areas are not expected to flood based on current conditions.
• The late-evening high tide of roughly 19 ft on 05-20—in conjunction with a pressure reading around 1014.65 hPa—is still below our historical flood thresholds and lacks the low barometric pressure that has contributed to higher-category floods in the past.
• NOAA’s Flood Likelihood Analysis remains at 0%, reinforcing that conditions do not align with significant flooding events.
CATEGORY 2
WHAT
No flooding is anticipated. Although tides will climb into the upper 19 ft range, pressures remain well above 992.8 hPa (generally near or above 1013 hPa), mitigating the risk of coastal inundation.
WHEN
Peak tides around 11:18 AM and again in the evening near 5:36 PM PDT 2025-05-21.
IMPACTS
No expected property impacts or inundation.
• Compared with historical Category 3–4 events, the tide on 05-21 is slightly lower and accompanied by higher barometric pressure.
• NOAA continues to forecast 0% flood likelihood, confirming no coastal flooding threat under these conditions.
CATEGORY 2
WHAT
No flood concerns. Despite a slightly higher tide (approaching 19.4 ft near midnight), ample barometric pressure (around 1017 hPa) significantly reduces any flood potential.
WHEN
Early morning high tide around 00:18 AM and midday tide near 12:48 PM PDT on 2025-05-22.
IMPACTS
No expected street or property flooding.
• Historical events that reached Category 3 or higher typically involved tide heights above 20 ft combined with noticeably lower barometric pressures (often near or below 1000 hPa). Neither factor is met here.
• NOAA’s Flood Likelihood for 05-22 remains 0%, reinforcing very minimal 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.
