Against the archive
The peak in the last 24 hours, 1.883 m, is the highest since 31 Oct, when it reached 1.922 m.
The latest reading is above the average level on 81% of the 37 days in the archive.
Archive high 1.935 m on 29 Oct. Archive low 1.366 m on 2 Oct.
This record covers 37 days, not a full run of seasons, so “highest” here only means highest so far. It may still be ordinary for this river. One-off spikes are ignored when working out highs and lows, but faults can last longer than that.
This archive holds 3,370 readings over 37 days, back to 16 Aug 2026. Riverbook has been collecting for 8 hours, since 2 Nov 2026. Readings before that come from the OPW’s five-week file.
