Flood Alert

I have just received an automated flood warning for the river Thurne (the river that Halcyon is on) and thought I would investigate further. It turns out that the Thurne bungalows are not in danger of flooding, and in the process found a couple of web pages that give live feeds from river level monitors nearby. 


 A very useful resource. Halcyon has it's own river level indicator in the riverside garden. It consists of a floating marker and gauge. I am in the process of improving it with a new gauge and an electronic level and salinity sensor. Hopefully this will be ready to install on our next visit.
