Nibi Metrics
Real-time water levels, forecasts, and alerts for lakes and rivers across Canada and the US. Built on official government data.
Nibi Metrics turns raw gauge readings from official hydrometric networks into something a person standing on a dock can actually use: is the water high or low for today, which way is it moving, and how unusual is this? This page explains where every number on the platform comes from and what we do to it along the way.

About Arrowstone Creek near the Mouth
Arrowstone Creek - A vital conduit within the Thompson watershed.
Arrowstone Creek flows gracefully near its mouth, contributing to the vibrant hydrological tapestry of British Columbia. Nestled in the Thompson - Mouth watershed, this river serves as an essential connector, guiding waters towards the larger Thompson River system. The creek drains roughly 49.4 square kilometres of surrounding terrain, highlighting its role in managing both storm and meltwater within this dynamic region.
The watershed context
Surrounded by the rugged landscapes that characterize British Columbia, Arrowstone Creek is flanked by several noteworthy peers such as the Bonaparte River, Dairy Creek, and various segments of the Thompson River. These waterways share a seasonal rhythm, driven primarily by mountain hydrology. The freshet, informed by snowpack, typically peaks between May and July, with systems like Arrowstone Creek reflecting this pulse as they channel meltwater from the surrounding elevations down to lower reaches.
As the seasons shift, the creek, along with its neighboring rivers, experiences noticeable changes in flow. This variability embodies the region's natural hydrology, particularly during the summer months when inflow diminishes naturally due to evaporation and reduced snowmelt.
Why the data matters here
Monitoring data for Arrowstone Creek is crucial for a variety of stakeholders, from local cottagers to farmers, all of whom depend on accurate water information to inform their activities. The Water Survey of Canada operates the gauge at Arrowstone Creek, providing valuable insights into daily fluctuations in water levels.
Today's reading, recorded at this location, is an important indicator when compared to the historical median for this calendar day across 24 years of records. This comparison offers context, helping to better understand current conditions against historical trends, emphasizing the creek's role within the watershed's broader hydrological patterns.
How this page is built
Readings come from official government gauges and are rolled into daily records: the daily mean, high and low for every day on record. Each calendar day gets its own baseline from the full history, so the level you see is compared against what this specific date usually looks like rather than an annual average.
