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 Rio Guayanes at Central Roig
Rio Guayanes - A dynamic waterway in Eastern Puerto Rico.
The Rio Guayanes flows through the lush landscapes of Eastern Puerto Rico, offering a vibrant river system that encapsulates the island's tropical hydrology. This river is a vital thread in the region’s ecosystem and serves as an important resource for both local wildlife and nearby communities.
The watershed context
The Rio Guayanes at Central Roig is part of the Eastern Puerto Rico watershed, which is characterized by its varying landscapes and diverse aquatic habitats. The drainage area for this river, approximately 26.2 square miles, contributes significantly to its flow and ecological health. It connects with various other water bodies in the region, including Lago Carite and several quebradas, such as Quebrada Grande and Quebrada Josefina, all of which play their part in the dynamic drainage system.
Puerto Rico's tropical island hydrology is marked by frequent rainfall, leading to flash floods that can develop rapidly, especially during hurricane season or tropical wave events. These steep basins can rise and fall with remarkable swiftness, influencing both the flow rates and the ecological conditions of the rivers they contain. Local precipitation patterns are a crucial factor in maintaining the balance within this rich ecosystem.
Why the data matters here
The data gathered from the Rio Guayanes at Central Roig by the U.S. Geological Survey is essential for understanding its fluctuations over time. The current readings compared to historical medians can indicate changes in rainfall patterns and watershed health. This information is particularly relevant in a region where seasonal storms can quickly alter water conditions, impacting both flora and fauna, as well as local communities relying on the river.
Today's readings will be compared to the median for the calendar day across 23 years of historical data at this station. Understanding these variations is vital, as it goes beyond simple elevation numbers; it reflects real-time changes in the watershed's health and water availability, informing conservation efforts and community planning in the face of tropical climatic conditions.
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.
