Notes

Air Pressure 1023.8 hPa, Rainfall last 24 hrs 0
River very low, gauge out of water and mud covered the base, therefore river heights were estimated, not measured. Damp mud and stained wet sand suggests that there is tidal influence.
Readings taken before actual high tide so that photos could be taken in daylight.
