#9148 1 Oct 2014 Approved Notes: Rainfall lst 48 hours 22 mm
24 hours previously gale force winds and heavy rain
Currently weather much modified, sea relatively moderate, but breakers have steep fronts. Mouth outlet open but SHALLOW. Hooded plovers now on beach.
#9094 2 Sep 2014 Approved Notes: Rainfall last 48 hours 8 mm
Atmospheric Pressure 1019.8 hPa
#9033 30 Jul 2014 Approved Notes: Rainfall during past 48 hrs was 23 mm in Otways. Atmospheric pressure = 1008.8 hPa. High-tide storm surge combined with recent rain produce elevated water levels in estuary. Berm breached in several places adjacent to river mouth.
#8990 5 Jul 2014 Approved Notes: Rain in last 48 hours 13mm Atmospheric Pressure 1009 hPa.
Stormy weather during sampling with breakers causing storm surge up the river mouth, while rainfall provided good downstream flow at the same time.
#8916 5 Jun 2014 Approved Notes: 5.6 mm rain in past 48 hr; atmospheric pressure = 1020.4 hPa
#8852 7 May 2014 Approved Notes: In the 48 hrs before these observation, 1.2 mm of rain was received. Atmospheric pressure = 1029.3 hPa. Rain (43mm) during previous week has raised water level in river; level now dropping.
#8813 3 Apr 2014 Approved Notes: Air pressure 1020.6 hPa; 0.4 mm rain previous 48 hr.
At high tide waves overwash berm and push a storm surge upstream. At low tide there would be no surface flow.
#8772 7 Mar 2014 Approved Notes:

Rain fall last 48 hours Air Pressure 1022.5 hPa
The mouth was open at High Tide, allowing incoming waves to enter the river, and gently flow upstream for approx. 30 metres. At low tide the river mouth would be CLOSED. Probably there is no outward flow of the river, hence the high water level reading.

#8703 1 Feb 2014 Approved Notes: Rainfall last 48 hrs 0 mm, Atmospheric Pressure 1014 hPa
January has been very dry, and has had a number of very hot days.
Mouth opening is very narrow. At low tide the river flow would be blocked.
#8649 2 Jan 2014 Approved Notes: 2.6 mm of rain in past 48 hr. Air pressure = 1008.8 hPa.
Water levels given above are estimates only because silt deposits conceal gauge readings less than the 0.6 m mark. Tidal influence was inferred from water water stain on bank above the current water level.
