Notes

Due to build up of sands the sea seems to be lower. River looks moderately high due to sand bar. On the land side of the bridge, the water level is moderately high due to hold up of lower water at the mouth. It is difficult to compare levels due to change of AHD post, but i will now get a better comparison in the future.
