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.
For five years, spring 2019 was the mark every Lake Muskoka decision answered to. In April 2026 the lake went two centimeters higher - and the official books have not caught up yet.

Live river level, flow, historical records and forecast for Restigouche River below Kedgwick River in Canada, NB, Canada, built from official government gauge data.
Restigouche River below Kedgwick River - A significant tributary of the Restigouche.
Flowing in New Brunswick's picturesque landscape, the Restigouche River below the Kedgwick River plays an important role in the water dynamics of the Central Restigouche watershed. This river stretch is an integral part of a larger system that captures and channels waters from a substantial catchment area, allowing for a rich interplay between local geography and hydrology.
The Restigouche River below the Kedgwick River drains a catchment of roughly 3,170 square kilometres. This expansive area includes the flow contributions from upstream sources, impacted by seasonal weather patterns typical of New Brunswick. In the spring, the melting snow generates a freshet that can heighten river levels, posing ice-jam risks on the major waterways. As autumn approaches, rain can drive flood conditions, adding a dynamic aspect to the river's flow.
Monitoring water levels and flow at this station is paramount for understanding both ecological and hydrological patterns. Current data can help gauge conditions against the long-term averages, highlighting any anomalies or trends over time. Today’s reading can be compared to the historical median for this calendar day over the past 63 years, offering valuable context for local observers and water managers. The Water Survey of Canada operates this station, and by delivering reliable data, they help facilitate informed decision-making for the surrounding communities.
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.
