Redondo Beach, WA
CATEGORY 2
WHAT
No risk of flooding is expected. Despite tide heights reaching the mid-to-upper 19 ft range at times, barometric pressure remains well above the historically critical low-flood threshold (near 992.8 hPa).
WHEN
The highest forecast tide of the day occurs around mid-afternoon (about 15:18 local time), but again, overall flood risk is minimal.
IMPACTS
No flooding impacts are anticipated. Coastal areas are expected to remain unaffected, and there should be no need for additional flood-related precautions.
• Tide heights approach 19 ft yet remain below flood-inducing levels.
• Barometric pressure readings over 1013 hPa, which is safely above the low-pressure benchmarks from past flood events.
• NOAA’s Flood Likelihood for 2025-05-24 is rated “Low” (0.0% chance), further supporting no flood risk.
CATEGORY 2
WHAT
No risk of flooding is anticipated. While high tides do near 20 ft overnight and again in the mid-afternoon, pressure remains substantially above 992.8 hPa, reducing the chance of coastal flooding.
WHEN
Early-morning hours (around 02:00 local time) and mid-to-late afternoon (around 16:18) see the highest tides, but flood conditions are unlikely.
IMPACTS
No coastal flood impacts are expected. Low-lying areas and roads should remain fully accessible.
• Maximum projected tide near 19.8 ft coincides with barometric pressures ~1011 hPa, well above typical storm conditions.
• NOAA’s Flood Likelihood remains at 0.0% for this date.
• Winds are forecast to be light to moderate, providing little additional push of water toward the shore.
CATEGORY 2
WHAT
No risk of flooding. Even though tides may briefly approach or exceed 19.5 ft, barometric pressure remains higher than the critical threshold for severe coastal impacts.
WHEN
Peak tide heights occur around 02:36 and 17:18 local time but remain below the levels historically associated with flood events.
IMPACTS
No expected flooding; normal marine activities should continue without disruption.
• Highest tides are around 19.6–19.8 ft but with barometric pressure near 1008–1010 hPa, which is still well above historically flood-prone lows.
• NOAA forecasts a 0.0% flood likelihood for this date.
• Winds from the W/NW are moderate, not enough to generate significant additional inundation.
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.
