Notes:
Lots of sand movement in the past few weeks. Sand deposited upstream of bridge, see photos attached. Also the river channel has been eroding the beach on the west side adjacent to the Great Ocean Road. In the past few weeks there have been some steep sand banks however these have eroded down. Estuary Watch coincided with high tide. |

Notes:
No wind when we were recording the data hence cannot state a wind direction. The estuary has a very large pool of water upstream and downstream of the bridge. The river has carved a bank into the beach in front of the store. Mack Cheney attended today. |

Notes:
The Wye River was very wide and we experienced difficulty in reading the gauge. Access was problematic. The level was halfway up the gauge ( we dropped a stick to check and test the level) but it was difficult to decipher the reading, even on the attached photo. The Beaufort Wind strength No was 0, and Calm. |
