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 Barbara Weit Stream at Cavendish Farm
Barbara Weit Stream - A vital waterway in Central Prince Edward Island.
Barbara Weit Stream flows through the diverse landscapes of Central Prince Edward Island, playing an essential role in the local hydrology. This river, gauged at Cavendish Farm, drains an area of approximately 11.6 square kilometres. Providing a continuous baseflow, Barbara Weit Stream is nourished by rain and snowmelt, characteristic of the Atlantic island hydrology prevalent in this region.
Why the data matters here
Monitoring the stream's flow conditions is vital for understanding water availability and aquatic health in this part of the province. The gauge at Cavendish Farm also offers insights into seasonal variations, which can affect agricultural practices in the nearby areas. The data collected here aids local farmers, cottagers, and outdoor enthusiasts in making informed decisions based on water levels and stream flow, particularly during the seasonal transition from winter into spring when the stream sees brief freshet activity.
Today, the water level reading from the gauge can be compared against the historical median for this date at the Water Survey of Canada station, providing context that raw elevation figures alone cannot offer. Each reading informs users of the stream's current condition, supporting sound resource management and recreational planning for over seven years of records.
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.
