Most Qms began plotting left of Rating. Moreover, GZF measured 2024 shows change from ~1.22 to ~0.99 ft. Highest Qm obtained thus far has no condition notes other than \\"heavy debris\\", this may indicate reason for skewed shifts given the shift on that highest Qm was slightly positive. \\n\\nMost weight given to Qms after 9/23/2021 when suspected control change occurred. However, used Qms old as 2009 due to them being the highest cfs measured.
