#5382	7 Apr 2011	Approved	Notes: Rainfall last 48 hours 0mm, Air Pressure 1029 hPa Build up of silt and vegetation around fishing platform at Gauge site is changing bank configuration (see photo BmP2.2) BmP1.1 estuary mouth BmP1.2 upstream of estuary mouth BmP2.1 across fishing platform BmP2.2 showing silt build up around fishing platform
#5281	10 Mar 2011	Approved	Notes: Air Pressure 1017.4 hPa Rainfall last 48 hours 1.8mm There has been an accretion of sand on the berm close to river mouth since last monitoring session BmP1.1 - river mouth with outward flow BmP1.2 - upstream of river mouth at golf course photopoint BmP2.1 River at Ocean Road
#5086	3 Feb 2011	Approved	Notes: Air Pressure 1014.3 hPa, Rainfall 0.00mm last 48 hrs. River level very low. River gauge exposed down to mud layers that have buried the lower readings beyond 0.5 m. Recorded reading above is an estimate only. Stains and dampness of the exposed sand along river banks suggest that the overnight high tide of 1.4m did have a tidal influence on the river. BmP1.1 river exit at mouth BmP1.2 river slightly upstream from mouth exit BmP2.1 across river at fishing platform BmP2.2 shows gauge covered by mud deposits, and river level below visible gauge readings
#4921	3 Jan 2011	Approved	Notes: Air Pressure 1018 hPa Rainfall over last 48 hrs 0.0 mm More bed rock exposed at river mouth - see photos BmP1.1 mouth with rocks exposed Bmp1.2 mouth and up stream BmP1.3 up steam from mouth - final in panorama BmP2.1 at river gauge photopoint

#4281	28 Aug 2010	Approved	Notes: AIR PRESSURE 1024.2hPa, Rainfall last 48 hrs 9.2 mm Otway Ranges including Barham Catchment received record rainfall with heavy winds in August. River banks overflowed into the riparian zone, large logs and heavy debris washed to estuary shoreline, and in places overtopped with silt and sand. Estuary mouth has been reshaped due to berm erosion on ocean side. River now back in its banks. Bmp1.1 Bmp1.2 Bmp2.1
#4081	2 Aug 2010	Approved	Notes: Air Pressure 1025.6 hPa 32.2 mm rainfall in last 48 hours River swollen but not flooding due to heavy rainfall. Strong outward flow through mouth due to water volume in river BmP1.1 - mouth BmP1.2 - estuary BmP2.1 - river at bridge
