Elbow River: water levels along the river

We have 3 gauges on the Elbow River. 2 of them read below normal for the date, and none is running high.

The gauges are in Alberta. Reading the gauges in order shows how a rise or a dry spell travels downstream, usually over a day or more on a big river. Fall is often a low point for rivers after the summer, until steady rain returns.

About the Elbow River

The Elbow River is a river in southern Alberta, Canada. It flows from the Canadian Rockies to the city of Calgary, where it merges into the Bow River. Its name is derived from the elbow-like turn the river takes before it joins the Bow.
