@EnvAgencySW #Hydrometry Experts have revolutionised our #raingauge network with hi-tec #Pluvio weighing gauges. These give us volumes of snowmelt from #StormEmma & #TheBeastFromTheEast. This #data is essential to help reduce #floodrisk to communities through Devon and Cornwall.

@xrunnerwill @riverlevel_1265 @paulblackler Good work @xrunnerwill and @paulblackler. Great to confirm the flow gauge readings and provide high quality #hydrometric data to help with operational decisions

Now @riverlevel_2064 which proves #flood warnings for Trenear and Helston and #abstraction monitoring. Essential #hydrometric data! High flows today 3.7 cumecs and the ultrasonic gauge is close so all good again. Great when things work. Nice one #Hydrometry

Out for a walk around one of my favourite places in Cornwall #LoeBar . Amazing the power of the recent storms and and the erosion they cause

[Marty Barnfield @Marty_Barnfield]

@xrunnerwill Yes not far off Qmed and good to rating giving us good confidence in flows up to bankfull

[Marty Barnfield @Marty_Barnfield]

@xrunnerwill Yes Will. It was around 11 Cumecs

[Marty Barnfield @Marty_Barnfield]

Out collecting high flow ADCP measurements #hydrometry on the #River Kensey today at #Launceston Newport. Providing Quality data to improve our flood models and flood forecasting.

9th December 1972: 45yrs ago today the gauging station at Bastreet on the Withey Brook (47013) began recording data @EnvAgencySW #AdventCalendar https://t.co/cQ5QGZVcTD

[Marty Barnfield @Marty_Barnfield]

@AndrewBoothEA Yes well observed as it is quite hidden in the photo!

[Marty Barnfield @Marty_Barnfield]

Out with Cornwall and Devon Hydrometry and Telemetry on a team day exchanging ideas and flow gauging techniques

@xrunnerwill - not quite got the hang of this yet - are you both xrunnerwill and cornwallOC

[Marty Barnfield @Marty_Barnfield]

@xrunnerwill 1st tweet just getting the hang of it. Penhale on 19th - will be there! Looks like a tough one
