| [01] | 23:24 | I first went into my shed at 23:17 and the water was just coming through the floor boards. At 23:24 the water just started flowing over the shed cill which was determined by URS using differential GPS to be at 5.76mCD. The shed floorboards act like a stilling well, however there may have been some pumping due to waves in the river. |
