First Water Level height is an estimate as water was below the silt covering the gauge.
Wind direction has been entered as E, however there was no wind, and therefore no direction. This is not an option on the program.

#8048 31 Jan 2013 Approved Notes: Rainfall last 48 hrs 8.6, Air Pressure 1011.5 hPa. River level comparatively high. At HT the mouth was open with in flowing tide. However the depth at the mouth was very shallow, suggesting the mouth would be closed at low tide. This would help to account for the high river level.
#8125 28 Feb 2013 Approved Notes: Air Pressure 1017.3 hPa, Rainfall last 48 hrs 14.0mm
Water Level in the river high with flooded fishing platforms, and full banks. Level is due to the sand bar which is just underwater at high tide at estuary mouth. Mouth would be closed at low tide. See additional photo for BmP3 showing mouth. The location of the mouth has shifted north since last monitoring. Berm has been greatly reduced in height
#8199 28 Mar 2013 Approved Notes: Air Pressure 1013.9 hPa, Rainfall last 48 hrs 2.6 mm. Stormy conditions at time of sampling. River above banks and spreading to flats. Waves breaking over berms which have been reduced in height since last monitoring. At high tide waves were breaking over the shallow berm across mouth which would block outward flow at low tide. See photos.
#8257 1 May 2013 Approved Notes: Rainfall last 48 hrs 11 mm. Air Pressure 1021.3 hPa
The river level is above the banks, flooding the camp ground, and the horse paddock as well as rest of flood plain near the river edge. Additional rainfall will intensify flooding. The berm opposite the fishing platform at the bridge has risen in height. At the Golf Course observation post the high tide breakers did travel over the closed mouth, but there is no outward flow of river water . Berm across the mouth at high tide is shallow, but wide 35 meters on river side and 7 metres on seaward side.
