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.

Susie Creek - a refreshing resource in arid Nevada.
Susie Creek flows through the heart of Carlin, Nevada, within the Upper Humboldt watershed. This river, draining a catchment of roughly 194 square miles, is an important feature in an area where water is both a precious resource and a dynamic element of the landscape.
The Upper Humboldt watershed is characterized by a unique hydrology that depends heavily on mountain snowmelt for its water supply. This seasonal shift causes spring peaks in flow, while summer thunderstorms can lead to sudden flash floods, reflecting the variability of the region's climate. Amidst a backdrop of mountains, Susie Creek meanders, providing both ecological support and recreational opportunities for local residents and visitors.
Nearby waters, such as the Humboldt River and Hanks Creek, share similar seasonal patterns, contributing to the ecological landscape that supports diverse wildlife and vegetation along their banks. This area relies on these waterways, especially during hotter periods, as evaporation increases and inflows decrease.
Monitoring the water levels of Susie Creek through the USGS station helps inform local users about current conditions. Today's readings can be compared to historical data, providing context that raw elevation fails to convey. As we assess today's level against its median for this calendar day over the last 34 years, it allows for a clearer understanding of the creek's behavior and trends, crucial for cottagers, anglers, and land managers alike. By staying informed, everyone in the community can engage meaningfully with Susie Creek's dynamic and life-sustaining presence.
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.
