Physical condition data taken from Willy Weather website.

An extra photo was taken the day after monitoring, thought that we should include a better shot of where inlet had been recently opened.

Earlier in the week, there had been an area roped off at the mouth to protect nesting Hooded Plovers. This has been removed.

No berm measurement taken. Mouth appeared open, with water flowing out to sea over the sand. No channel to speak of, and some over-topping inwards with bigger waves.

Have included a photo of some beach goers attempting to dig a channel out to sea. They appeared to give up on the task after awhile.
