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 Pine Creek near Palisade
Pine Creek - a resilient flow in the heart of Nevada.
Pine Creek flows near Palisade, offering a vital water source in the arid landscape of northern Nevada. This river encompasses a drainage area of roughly 1,002 square miles upstream of the measurement station, making it a significant part of the Pine watershed. Pine Creek joins other notable water bodies in the area, including Henderson Creek and Horse Creek, weaving a network of waterways vital for local ecosystems and communities.
Why the data matters here
Monitoring the flow of Pine Creek is crucial for understanding the health of the ecosystem, particularly as hydrological patterns in the Great Basin are significantly affected by seasonal changes. With snowfall in the nearby mountains serving as a key driver for spring runoff, water levels typically fluctuate with the seasons. Summer thunderstorms can also introduce sudden changes in water flow, highlighting the river's dynamic nature.
Today's reading from the USGS station will indicate how Pine Creek's water levels compare to the median for this day across its historical data gathered over the past three years. Evaluating this reading against the median provides a clearer picture of current conditions, allowing for more informed management and monitoring of this vital resource.
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.
