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 Eagle Creek near Double Circle Ranch, near Morenci
Eagle Creek - a dynamic river shaped by seasonal extremes.
Eagle Creek flows near Double Circle Ranch, a vital watercourse in Arizona's Upper Gila-San Carlos Reservoir watershed. This river is marked by a unique hydrological character typical of the arid Southwest, where summer monsoon thunderstorms can lead to sudden flash floods, while winter storms and the snowmelt from higher elevations sustain the larger rivers through drier spells.
The watershed context
The watershed that Eagle Creek occupies drains an area of approximately 377 square miles, contributing to the broader landscape of the Upper Gila-San Carlos Reservoir. This system is essential for local flora and fauna, and it also holds significance for recreational activities and agricultural practices in the region. Peers of Eagle Creek include Bonita Creek and various segments of Eagle Creek nearby, alongside larger rivers like the Gila River. Understanding the behavior of Eagle Creek provides insight into the dynamic interactions of water levels that can shift drastically due to regional weather patterns.
Why the data matters here
Today's reading from the Eagle Creek near Double Circle Ranch station by the U.S. Geological Survey indicates a measurement critical for understanding the current state of the river. This reading is contextualized by comparing it against the median for this calendar day across more than 8 years' worth of historical data. By using median values, we gain a clearer picture of the river's behavior, which can often fluctuate dramatically due to the seasonal rhythms of arid southwestern hydrology. This information is vital for local farmers, recreational users, and anyone else relying on the water resources of this region.
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.
