strata water crossing

[SpinDrift]

Has anyone been out to Strata Florida recently? What is the water level likely to be like at the wide water crossing on Strata Florida this weekend with the recent and predicted rainfall? No snorkel at the moment.

Every river in the country is high at the moment and has been since May so Id guess it will be too deep if you dont have a snorkel.

Thats what I was thinking. I'll make differnt plans. Thanks.

or this area

most of the rivers near Strata seem to at the low end of typical range, and measurements taken today

thanks
I often use the SEPA website in Scotland to check river levels prior to fishing trips

ps - best to check rivers that are not below dams in the area, as well as ones fed from dams!
as the dams may check water flow for some rivers
