Against the archive
No comparison with today is shown because this gauge is not reporting.
Archive high 3.392 m on 1 Nov. Archive low 2.095 m on 28 Sept.
This record covers 36 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 3,275 readings over 36 days, back to 27 Sept 2026. Riverbook has been collecting for 8 hours, since 2 Nov 2026. Readings before that come from the OPW’s five-week file.
