The dotted line is that normal, the next line up its 90th percentile. Not metres, which differ by gauge. Colour is the flood class it has crossed. Dashed ring = too little record to place.

Heights at this gauge are local gauge height (LGH) — gauge zero sits at 170.219 m. Local gauge height is measured from a datum set at this site, so a reading here is not directly comparable with one at another gauge. Drainage basin: KIEWA RIVER.

Named floods

Peaks are computed from the readings stored for this gauge over each named event window — verify against official records before relying on them (docs/VERIFICATION.md §5).
