What this means

The Kaslo River below Kemp Creek is running below normal at 1.95 m.

That puts it 0.08 m below the median of 2.03 m for mid-October, based on 16 years of readings. A year ago it stood at 1.90 m (+0.06 m).

The level has held steady over the past 24 hours. Without real rain upstream, that is unlikely to change quickly. In the last month it has stayed between 1.95 m and 2.17 m.

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