Pictures From Today!
Collecting Samples
Todays Journaling
Collecting samples today was fun! I did not have any troubles, and I got it done fairly quickly. I did notice a few small differences in my stream from the rain. The conductivity was lower, the other days it was 420, and today it was 406. Another thing that changed was the temperature of the stream, but according to the water quality tester, the temp went up, which surprises me. In the past, I have observed that after rain fall, swimming holes often get colder. I wonder if the size of my stream has something to do with it not following this temperature pattern? Other than that, there were no differences in the streams appearance.
E.coli Testing Results
When I checked at 5:00 I found 8 blue spots. But when I checked again at 8:30 I found 11 spots of E.coli. So I updated it to the final count of 110.
