6 mm rainfall. Turbidy was very high today. The posphate levels were zero, which was most unsual, as most times the readings are in the "degraded" range. i did the test twice, just to make sure there was no mistake. North and South inlet drains: no flow, though there were signs that the south drain had flowed recently.
