Redondo Beach, WA
CATEGORY 2
WHAT
No risk of coastal flooding is expected on June 11. The highest tide is forecast to be below the levels associated with historical flood events, and barometric pressure readings remain well above the low-pressure thresholds that have previously led to flooding.
WHEN
High tide of approximately 19.3–19.4 ft occurs in the late afternoon to early evening hours (around 3:30 PM–4:00 PM). No flooding impacts are anticipated.
IMPACTS
• No significant flooding.
• No threat to property or roadways is expected.
NOAA’s Flood Likelihood Analysis for June 11 reports a 0.0% chance of flooding. Although the tide is reasonably high, the barometric pressure remains above 1005 hPa—historical events of Category 4 or higher often feature tides above 20 ft combined with pressures near or below about 992 hPa. Consequently, flooding is not anticipated.
CATEGORY 2
WHAT
No risk of flooding is expected on June 12. While tides may reach the upper 19 ft range, the barometric pressure is not notably low, moderating flood potential.
WHEN
Two relevant high tides occur—around 03:54 AM and 07:12 PM local time—each peaking under 20 ft.
IMPACTS
• No flooding of public areas anticipated.
• Normal conditions along shorelines.
Historical Category 3 and 4 events typically involved tide heights of at least 20 ft coupled with pressures at or below about 1002 hPa and often significantly lower. NOAA’s official forecast ranks the likelihood of flooding at 0.0% for June 12, further confirming no expected flooding impacts.
CATEGORY 2
WHAT
No risk of flooding is expected on June 13. Tides will again approach, but not exceed, 20 ft. Barometric pressures will remain above critically low levels historically associated with coastal flooding.
WHEN
High tidal peaks near or just under 19.6 ft are forecast around 04:36 AM and 07:42 PM. Pressures are expected to hover above 1001 hPa, which does not align with severe flood patterns.
IMPACTS
• Minimal if any shoreline impacts.
• No road closures or property damage expected.
Comparisons with prior flood events (Category 3 and higher) show that lower pressures below about 992–1002 hPa and tide heights over 20 ft are usually required for notable flooding. NOAA data for June 13 again indicates a 0.0% flood probability, confirming no flooding 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.
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.
