- Waves going well up on beach all along foreshore including intermittently over highest part just east of entrance
- Longshore drift across mouth over sand build up.

- Some of the remaining fish eggs have been carried around to side of channel
- Water level higher in estuary, parts of low track flooded, this is increased by very strong N wind driving waves to the area
