What this means

Low water at Cranberry Creek above B.C. Hydro Intake: the gauge reads 24.23 m, below normal for mid-October.

That puts it 0.10 m below the median of 24.33 m for mid-October, based on 15 years of readings.

It is still going down, by 0.01 m over the past 24 hours. Without real rain upstream, that is unlikely to change quickly. The 30-day range is 24.15 m – 24.64 m.

Fall is often low-water season on rivers, and it usually takes a few days of steady rain to change that.
