#8916	5 Jun 2014	Approved	Notes: 5.6 mm rain in past 48 hr; atmospheric pressure = 1020.4 hPa BmP2_20140605_1_136 BmP3_20140605_1_217 BmP3_20140605_2_2577
#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. Bmp2_ 20140705_1_136 Bmp3_20140705_1_217 Bmp3_20140705_2_257
#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.

#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. Bmp2_20141001_1_136 Bmp3_20141001_1_217 Bmp3_20141001_2_257
#9178	29 Oct 2014	Approved	Notes: Rainfall last 48 hours 12 mm Considerable sand deposiition near mouth of the river. River level relatively high, causing good outward flow. Shrub growth around the river gauge is obsscuring view of readings. We will take branch cutting tools next month. Bmp2_20141029_1_136 Bmp3_20141029_1_217 Bmp3_20141029_2_257
#9226	25 Nov 2014	Approved	Notes: Rainfall last 48 hrs 8 mm. Atmospheric Pressure 1017.4 hPa. While there was no tidal influence at the time of monitoring, the high tide at 2 am did raise the river height considerably, leaving a tide water mark on river bank. Berm at the river mouth has been greatly reduced resulting in a flat beach. The River channel has been pushed against the mainland river bank. The flow through the mouth is shallow with a HT of 1.4m The shrubs previously obscuring the view of the river gauge have been trimmed back and gauges are now clear for reading.

#9288	4 Jan 2015	Approved	Notes: Rainfall last 48 hours 6.00 mm. Atmosppheric Presssure 1018.1 hPa Mouth open with water flowing out through narrow winding channel. Bmp2_20150104_1_136 Bmp3_20150104_1_217 Bmp3_20150104_2_257
#9359	2 Feb 2015	Approved	Notes: 0.6 mm rain during past 48 hrs. Atmospheric pressure = 1020.4 hPa. Mouth closed! River just flooding over banks into campground oval. BmP2_20150202_1_136 BmP3_20150202_1_217 BmP3_20150202_2_257
#9433	3 Mar 2015	Approved	Notes: Atmospheric Pressure 1017.3, rainfall last 48 hours 0 mm. River level is above banks, minor flooding in the riparian zone. Mouth berm is narrow, and a bigger high tide would wash over the berm blocking the river. There is a broad pondage of river water behind the berm. Tidal influence is questionable. The river level dropped marginally, probably due to river seepage underneath the berm. Berm length is 14 meters long. BmP2_20150303_1_136 BmP3_20150303_1_217 BmP3_20150303_2_257
