What this means
The Shuswap River near Enderby is running below normal at 1.89 m.
The median for mid-October is 1.98 m, based on 16 years of readings, so the water level is 0.09 m below typical. On the same day last year the reading was 1.79 m, a difference of +0.09 m.
It has barely moved over the past 24 hours. Without real rain upstream, that is unlikely to change quickly. In the last month it has stayed between 1.87 m and 1.92 m.
Fall is often low-water season on rivers, and it usually takes a few days of steady rain to change that.
