Redondo Beach, WA
CATEGORY 2
WHAT
No risk of coastal flooding expected. The tide is projected to reach approximately 19.6 ft with moderately low barometric pressure (around 1012 hPa), but conditions do not meet the threshold (>21 ft tide combined with very low pressure) required to produce flooding.
WHEN
The primary high-tide periods occur around midnight (00:54) and again early afternoon (around 14:06) on 2025-05-23.
IMPACTS
No significant flooding impacts are anticipated. Normal tidal fluctuations are expected, posing minimal concern for any inundation of roads or low-lying areas.
Comparing these conditions with historical events shows that neither the tide height nor the barometric pressure meets the levels seen in previous flood incidents. NOAA’s flood likelihood forecast is 0.0%, corroborating a very low probability of flooding.
CATEGORY 2
WHAT
No risk of flooding. Tides approach ~19.7 ft in the early morning hours, with pressures around 1013–1014 hPa, which remain well above the critical low-pressure threshold.
WHEN
Expect higher tide levels near mid-morning (around 10:36) and midafternoon (near 15:18) on 2025-05-24.
IMPACTS
No anticipated flooding issues. No road closures or inundation are expected under these conditions.
Although the tides are somewhat elevated, they remain below 21 ft. Past Category 3–5 events typically involved significantly higher tides (often above 20 ft with substantially lower pressure). NOAA continues to indicate a 0.0% flood likelihood.
CATEGORY 2
WHAT
No risk of flooding is indicated. The highest tide levels (around 19 ft) coincide with moderately lower pressure (about 1008–1011 hPa), but still not low enough to trigger concern.
WHEN
Primary high tides are early morning (around 02:00) and late afternoon (around 16:18) on 2025-05-25.
IMPACTS
No significant effects to shoreline areas are expected. Inundation of roads or property is not likely.
Historically, genuine flood events in this region involve tides above 21 ft paired with very low pressure (<992.8 hPa). Forecast data and NOAA’s 0.0% flood likelihood suggest minimal chance of 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.
