We had good rainfall in the area on Friday (less than 48hrs ago) with about 30mm in my gauge at Mill Park (BoM recorded about 30mm at Viewbank). As this is an "off-month" of sampling at this site (not doing bugs), I sample from under the bridge (Lakes Blvd), on the west side, rather than wading out into the reeds. This section of the lake is about 6m wide, and is where it connects to the rest of the wetland system. I still take the sample from the edge of the reeds though. The water levelis 8cm below my reference point which makes it 42cm higher than when last monitored.
