Penton still flying red. Any views on prospects for tomorrow up and down stream?

The level at Shilingford Bridge has dropped about 2" in the last 36 hours, I guess its now about 3" to 4" above normal. Stream is a tad fast.

Sunday 9am: I can't see Penton Lock from here unless I hang off Doolittle with a flying trapeze... but no change in the flow from yesterday and the level may have dropped a tad.
The rowers are not out - if that be any guide on the matter. 9:15 Correction: Hells teeth, they are out!! Mad fools!

Still up but looking out it has definitely peaked here at Marlow. Will walk down to the lock for any info shortly

That's because they don't obey the speed limits, and can punch the rip!

Just be told that Bell Weir has dropped to Amber, but Penton is staying on Red for the day. Will wander up to the Penton office and enquire later.

It's a lot slower just above PH now, reds or no reds. still a fairly strong stream, but quite a few boats going up and down.

Reds from Marlow down to Boulters. But Bray on Yellows now. Loads of boats came out going upstream from Boulters but it is still a very strong flow out there. Got back to the safety of Bray marina now
