Similkameen River: water levels along the river

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

The gauges are in British Columbia. 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 Similkameen River

Similkameen River

The Similkameen River runs through southern British Columbia, Canada, eventually discharging into the Okanogan River near Oroville, Washington, in the United States. Through the Okanagan River, it drains to the Columbia River. The river is said to be named for an indigenous people called Similkameigh, meaning "treacherous waters".
