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 Riviere Beaudette near Glen Nevis in Canada, ON, Canada, built from official government gauge data.
Riviere Beaudette - a vital tributary of the Upper St. Lawrence.
The Riviere Beaudette flows gracefully near Glen Nevis in Ontario, serving as an important tributary in the Upper St. Lawrence - Raisin watershed. This river plays a crucial role in the local aquatic ecosystem and is an essential resource for surrounding communities. With a catchment area of approximately 134 square kilometres, the river collects runoff from its surrounding land, supporting diverse wildlife and contributing to local water quality.
The Upper St. Lawrence - Raisin watershed encompasses a network of rivers and creeks feeding into the larger St. Lawrence River. The Riviere Beaudette has peers such as the Garry River and Raising River, which together illustrate the interconnectedness of water bodies in this region. Seasonal changes influence the river's flow, notably characterized by snowmelt-driven hydrology. The spring freshet typically occurs between late April and May, effectively replenishing the river and its tributaries. This is followed by a natural drawdown during the summer months, from July through September, where evaporation and reduced inflow can diminish water levels. Early winter sees a decline as ice begins to form.
Current monitoring data from the Riviere Beaudette is integral for local stakeholders, including farmers, cottagers, and conservationists. Today's water level can be accurately compared against historical records for this date to provide context—this is essential for managing water-related activities throughout the seasons. The Water Survey of Canada has recorded this station for over 42 years, allowing users to understand and prepare for varying conditions. By assessing today's reading against the median historical elevation for this date, residents can make informed decisions about water management, recreation, and environmental conservation efforts.
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.
