Spoke too soon. The river is at 23.5 this morning, already now over 4 feet higher than the newly revised crest level of 19.2. Pictures later today.
Update: Hurrah --- the flood gauge must have been reading incorrectly for now several hours later the level is 18.5 with the crest of 19.2 still being expected. I knew as fast as I walked out to look at the river this morning, rather than looking at the flood gauge charts online that the river wasn't up to 23.5. I've very much learned what river level goes with how the piers appear on the High Bridge.
