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.

Revuelto Creek - a key waterway in New Mexico's arid landscape.
Revuelto Creek flows gently near Logan, New Mexico, serving as an essential component of the local hydrology. The creek, draining a catchment area of approximately 786 square miles, plays a significant role in sustaining the surrounding ecosystems, particularly in a region marked by its dry climate.
The Revuelto watershed encapsulates the varying dynamics of New Mexico’s water systems. Characterized by high-country snowmelt in the spring, the region experiences notable fluctuations in flow, with the monsoon season from July to September causing intense storm events that can lead to flash flooding. The long dry spells in-between these water events emphasize the importance of each rainfall and snowmelt cycle for maintaining the ecological balance in the area.
Located within the often arid landscape of New Mexico, Revuelto Creek is positioned amongst a network of rivers and streams that support both wildlife and human activities. Understanding this creek’s contributions to the Revuelto watershed is crucial for managing the region’s limited water resources.
Today’s reading from the USGS indicates the current water level of Revuelto Creek, allowing for real-time assessment and monitoring. Comparing today’s measurements against the historical median for this calendar day provides valuable insights into the creek’s behavior. This approach helps identify whether the creek is experiencing higher or lower flows than normal for this time of year, which can be pivotal for those reliant on this water source for agriculture, recreation, or ecological health.
With data spanning over 50 years, the historical context strengthens our understanding of how the creek adapts to seasonal rhythms and climatic variability. The information collected by the USGS is critical for various stakeholders in appreciating not just the creek's current state, but also how it fits into the bigger picture of New Mexico’s hydrology and climate challenges.
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.
