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 Inkaneep Creek near the Mouth
Inkaneep Creek - A vital waterway of the Okanagan.
Nestled within the Okanagan watershed of British Columbia, Inkaneep Creek flows near its mouth, where it contributes to the intricate network of streams that support both the environment and local communities. This river, draining roughly 184 square kilometres upstream, plays a significant role in the region's natural hydrology and ecology.
The watershed context
The Okanagan watershed, known for its diverse landscapes ranging from rolling hills to fertile valleys, relies on regional mountain hydrology. Typically, the snowpack drives the freshet between May and July, causing the creek to rise substantially as runoff peaks. This seasonal cycle is crucial for replenishing water resources, supporting local agriculture, and sustaining wildlife habitats alongside the creek.
Inkaneep Creek shares its ecological community with several neighbouring waterways, including B.x. Creek, Belgo Creek, and Coldstream Creek. Each of these rivers and creeks contributes to the health of the broader watershed, fostering a rich and dynamic environment.
Why the data matters here
Data from the Water Survey of Canada helps monitor the current conditions of Inkaneep Creek, noting its discharge readings over time. These readings are crucial, allowing stakeholders such as cottagers, farmers, and flood-watchers to make informed decisions regarding water use, land management, and conservation efforts.
Today's reading reflects the creek's current status against the historical median for this date over the past 19 years. Understanding this context helps gauge the creek's flow and the potential impacts of seasonal changes, rainfall, and climate variations. By comparing today's measurement to the median, we gain a more accurate picture of the creek's behavior than by simply relying on the raw elevation alone. The monitoring provided by the Water Survey of Canada ensures that communities can respond effectively to the creek's natural rhythms.
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.
