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 la Casa above Cleveland
Rio la Casa - A key waterway of the Mora watershed.
The Rio la Casa flows gracefully above Cleveland, New Mexico, contributing to the hydrology of the Mora watershed. Nestled in the arid southwest, this river is essential, capturing the unique relationship between seasonal snowmelt and the region's pronounced dry spells.
Why the data matters here
Today's measurements from the USGS gauge at Rio la Casa can provide valuable insight for local residents and water managers alike. The monitoring conducted here is particularly significant given that the region typically experiences an influx of water from high-country snowmelt during the spring, which directly impacts flow levels. Following this, the monsoon rains between July and September may lead to sporadic flash floods.
Understanding the current flow and water levels in the Rio la Casa against historical data is crucial, particularly as it tracks the relatively short history of just over two years of records. By comparing today’s reading against the median for this calendar day across the station's historical record, water users can make informed decisions and anticipate potential changes in conditions.
Real-time data at this station may not include discharge measurements, yet the gauge still serves as an important indicator of the river’s health and capacity to support the surrounding ecosystems and communities. Tracking these changes helps in understanding the broader patterns within the Mora watershed, and ultimately, the profound impacts of our arid climate.
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.
