River peaked on the upper river now but still high with heavy colour from Ithon and Irfon and with more rain forecast overnight conditions for the weekend don't look good at all.  No water from the Elan dams so i reckon only change 'might' be above the Ithon junction.   Lowest beats might get away with it today before water rises there too.

In the meantime some interesting reading below;
