Note that the water temp was 2° colder here than upstream at the confluence of the East and West Branches MOO 001 (I rechecked the temperatures at both sites and this was found to be correct, I  put it down to the water entering from the East branch of the river was 2° warmer) I have made a note of this as I find this unusual to have so much a temperature difference between the two sites.
