Rideau River

Partly cloudy/partly sunny
Quite windy
Some lily pads and some weeds
Fire men were doing water rescue practice
Lots of fisher people

Mostly cloudy with a few sunny breaks and no rain in past 24 hrs. Ducks and Canada Geese around on the water and flying by. Summer dock removed so depth measured from the pier and won’t reflect same as summer depths.

Lovely sunny day with a few wispy clouds and very calm. Pair of fishermen on the dock catching very small rock & sun fish & releasing them. Spoke with them about Water Rangers and gave them a card to check it out online. Some ducks could be heard in the distance and some boaters & water skiers out on the river.

Sunny and windy day with no rain in past 24 hours. Few boaters out on the water. Summer dock is away now so measured depth from the pier edge, so won’t represent normal depth as well.

Overcast and raining now, with some more rain over past 24 hours. Ducks flying around and on the water and a fisherman fishing from shore. Summer dock has been removed so depth measurement taken from edge of pier instead.

Sunny, windy and only a few clouds in the sky. Quite a lot of rainfall in past 24 hours. Few hawks flying above us. Many boaters out on the water and others coming in and going out at the launch. Few folks fishing off the dock.

Sunny with some clouds and calm. Heavy rainfall and thunderstorms over the past 24 hours. Many people fishing and out on the water in boats and seadoos, or coming in to dock.

Sunny day with some thin clouds and windy. No rain in past 24 hours. Quite a few fishermen at the dock and boats coming & going from the launch area. Summer dock has been removed but river levels appear same as last tests so used that depth for todays test.

Overcast skies and very windy. Rain in past 24 hours with thunderstorms. Choppy water today....no wildlife visible.

Went to do water test but ice is on over half the river now.
