Notes

Hi everyone, great testing once again, sincere thanks.  We've had a pretty wild couple of months on the swell front and the data shows a distinct salt-wedge as a result!  Interesting times with the mouth too, varying from an open to closed state with the ocean, but looks like it may now stay open into our winter flow season.  Thanks
Jarred.
