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 Lamoille Creek near Lamoille
Lamoille Creek - A vital artery in the Upper Humboldt watershed.
Located in the heart of Nevada, Lamoille Creek flows near the small community of Lamoille. As a tributary in the Upper Humboldt watershed, it serves as an important resource for the surrounding ecosystem and local communities. The creek is indicative of the arid Great Basin hydrology, where mountain snowmelt contributes to water flow in the spring and summer thunderstorms can lead to sudden localized flooding.
The watershed context
Draining roughly 25 square miles above the station, Lamoille Creek is a significant conduit for water originating from nearby mountainous regions. It is flanked by several peer waterways such as Hanks Creek and Maggie Creek, all of which contribute to the dynamic hydrology of the Upper Humboldt watershed. This area is characterized by brief but intense inflows, especially during the spring melt, as well as the occasional heavy summer thunderstorms that can transform the normally gentle creek into a rush of water.
The hydrological patterns in Nevada's Upper Humboldt watershed are influenced by seasonal changes, with snowmelt contributing to the spring peaks in flow. This period is crucial for supporting aquatic life and replenishing groundwater supplies, especially in an environment that often experiences arid conditions.
Why the data matters here
Today's reading from the USGS station for Lamoille Creek gives us a snapshot of the current conditions and helps gauge the health of the creek over time. By comparing today’s measurement against the median for this calendar day over the past 50 years, we can assess how the creek's water level is behaving relative to historical norms. Understanding these variations is essential for local agriculture, fishing, and environmental management, particularly as the region experiences significant fluctuations in precipitation and water availability.
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.
