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 Chevelon Creek near Winslow
Chevelon Creek - a vital lifeline in the arid Southwest.
Chevelon Creek, located near Winslow, Arizona, is a dynamic waterway that embodies the unpredictable nature of the region's hydrology. This creek is a key part of the Chevelon Canyon watershed and serves as a crucial resource in an area characterized by its arid conditions. As a river that connects various tributaries and channels, Chevelon Creek plays an important role in managing the water flow through this environment.
The watershed context
The watershed for Chevelon Creek encompasses approximately 785 square miles, capturing runoff from the surrounding landscapes. The hydrology of this area is heavily influenced by summer monsoon thunderstorms and winter storms. The monsoons, often intense, can drive flash floods through the creek, while snowmelt from the higher elevations contributes to stream flows in the winter months. Such fluctuations create a landscape that can shift dramatically between wet and dry periods, with many channels running dry until the next weather event.
Nearby, Chevelon Fork below Wildcat Canyon is a notable peer offering additional insights into the flow patterns and hydrological conditions of the region. As you explore Chevelon Creek, you will witness the complexity of a system that is both shaped by and contributes to the raw power of nature in this part of the Southwest.
Why the data matters here
Today's reading of Chevelon Creek near Winslow is crucial in understanding its water conditions relative to historical patterns. By comparing the current measurement against the median for this calendar day across the station's 21 years of data, we gain insights into fluctuations in stream flow that affect local ecosystems and human management needs. The data provided by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) helps to clarify how seasonal changes impact water availability and provides essential information for those monitoring the creek's condition in the context of both ecological health and flood potential. This analytical approach ensures that those invested in the region can make informed decisions based on reliable data.
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.
