Notes

The Wye River was very wide and we experienced difficulty in reading the gauge. Access was problematic. The level was halfway up the gauge ( we dropped a stick to check and test the level) but it was difficult to decipher the reading, even on the attached photo.

The Beaufort Wind strength No was 0, and Calm.
