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 Rivière du Nord – Saint-André-d'Argenteuil
Rivière du Nord – Saint-André-d'Argenteuil - A vital watercourse in Quebec.
Rivière du Nord – Saint-André-d'Argenteuil flows through the picturesque landscape of the Rouge and Nord watershed, offering a glimpse into the natural hydrology of Quebec. This river, with a considerable catchment area of approximately 2,052 square kilometres, plays a crucial role in managing water levels and providing habitat to local wildlife.
Why the data matters here
As monitored by the Centre d’expertise hydrique du Québec (CEHQ), this station not only measures the river's elevation but also its discharge, allowing for a comprehensive understanding of its flow dynamics. Understanding the river's current state, especially during the strong spring freshet typically seen in April and May, is vital for local communities. This seasonal pattern can help anticipate potential flooding and assists in managing water resources effectively throughout the warmer months when low water conditions can occur due to evaporation and reduced inflow.
Today's water level reading for Rivière du Nord is essential in context; comparing it to the median for this calendar day supports an understanding of seasonal variations and historical trends. With records spanning over seven years, this data facilitates informed decisions for cottagers, farmers, and other local stakeholders who depend on the river's health.
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.
