Well, the ice went out of the river a week or so ago. Spring run off raises the water level. You also have to understand the river is semi tidal above the causeway at Annapolis Royal. When it was built in 1960 to keep out the tides so the dike structures no longer had to be maintained, the river level was pretty much static. While the tidal power turbine was in operation from '84 to 2019, the water level went up and down 3 feet twice each day. (Tides in this part of the bay range from 18 to 32 feet.) Because this created a semi tidal estuarine system, the practice continued even after the turbine ceased operation. That was a long winded was of saying, yes we do have "crazy water events".
