28 August Broadmeadows low evening tide

I don’t remember the broadmeadows estuary water level ever being quite so low so close to a high tide.  Notice the entire length of the pier is out of the water.  Today is partway between a spring tide and neap tide so I wouldn’t expect extremes.   The wind was strong out of the west but this is also typical.  It struck me that if the channel through the eroded section weir is considerably deeper than the others, eventually the estuary will settle to a lower level.
