Clip fell off
Clips compromised
Clear water
Flow typical.
moderate turbidity
Murky milky pale green water
Little foam/soap circles...quite dense out of the culvert and don't make it past the riffle
Whiffs of sewage at the outlet of the culvert under Monteith, but none at the time at the observation location on the creek
Rock riffle opposite depth meter appears to be functioning well- diverting debris and water flow nicely just upstream of box 1.
Water rose from 55 to 56 in the 15 minutes I was there
Depth at gauge 34
Box clogged especially on upstream side
Water depth lower today.
