Redondo Beach, WA
CATEGORY 2
WHAT
No significant flooding is expected. Observed high tides near 19.8 ft are not coupled with sufficiently low barometric pressure or other aggravating factors that would raise flood concerns.
WHEN
Highest tide periods around 2:30 AM and 5:00 PM local time, according to the provided dataset.
IMPACTS
No substantial impacts anticipated; low-lying roads and beach areas should experience minimal to no flooding.
• Barometric pressure is around 1009 to 1012 hPa during the highest tides, which is not low enough to create a heightened flood risk.
• Wind speeds are generally modest and do not appear to come from a flood-exacerbating direction (W/NW).
• NOAA indicates a 0.0% flood likelihood, corroborating minimal risk.
CATEGORY 2
WHAT
No significant flooding is expected. Predicted high tides near 19.6 ft again do not align with notably low barometric pressure and retain a very low flood likelihood.
WHEN
Highest tide periods around 3:00 AM and late afternoon (approximately 5:00 PM).
IMPACTS
Minor to no disruptions; coastal areas anticipated to remain largely unaffected.
• Barometric pressure readings of about 1010–1011 hPa are still well above more concerning thresholds (around or below 992.8 hPa).
• NOAA’s flood likelihood remains at 0.0%, indicating little chance of inundation.
• Comparisons to historical Category 3 or higher events show this setup lacking the low pressure and high NOAA likelihood typically required for more substantive flooding.
CATEGORY 2
WHAT
No significant flooding is expected. Although the tide may reach about 20.3 ft, moderate barometric pressure (around 1004–1006 hPa) and minimal NOAA flood likelihood (0.1%) do not suggest a notable flood threat.
WHEN
Peak flood-tide windows occur near 4:00 AM and 7:00–8:00 PM.
IMPACTS
No material impacts anticipated; tide levels approach higher ranges yet remain below thresholds historically associated with flood damage.
• While the barometric pressure is somewhat lower than on Days 1 and 2, it is still not in a range typically associated with major flood potential.
• Wind speeds and directions do not indicate significant storm surge influences; no strong W/NW flow is forecast.
• NOAA’s official daily flood likelihood for this period is only 0.1%, reinforcing that flooding conditions are unlikely.
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.
