Water level was 18cm below my reference point, which is 5cm lower than when last measured. At Mill Park I had 4mm of rain 3 days ago, and that was it for the week. The water was muddy, but it has been now for over a year. Quite a few small fish or shrimp were seen occasionally breaking the surface.
