There was slight rain falling at time of sampling. It started about an hour earlier, but in total was less than 1mm at gauge in Mill Park. No run-off as yet. Sample site is in flowing water just above a riffle, after a long section of sheltered reedy waterway. There are several willows shading the sample point. The water level today was lower than when last monitored, and flow significantly slower. Water level 28cm below an arbitrary reference point.
