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 Walker Rvr Blw Yerington Weir near Yerington in NV, United States, built from official government gauge data.
Walker River Below Yerington Weir - A vital flow in the Great Basin.
The Walker River, located near Yerington, Nevada, serves as an essential artery in the arid landscape of the Great Basin. This segment below the Yerington Weir is important for various local water uses, linking agricultural ventures and supporting ecological systems.
Monitoring the Walker River offers valuable insights into the hydrological dynamics of this region. The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) actively tracks changes in water levels, and their gauge provides significant data on the flow downstream of the Yerington Weir. With over eight years of records available, we can observe how water levels fluctuate with seasonal patterns, largely driven by mountain snowmelt in spring and occasional summer thunderstorms that may cause flash floods.
Given that the Walker River contributes significantly to local agricultural and recreational activities, understanding its current data helps users make informed decisions. Presently, gauging this river's status against its historical median for today allows stakeholders—whether they are farmers, anglers, or environmentalists—to assess the river's health and its suitability for various uses.
Today's reading will be compared to the median for this calendar day, providing a meaningful context for interpreting changes in water levels and ensuring the ongoing vitality of the watershed.
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.
