History
Not enough readings for a chart yet. History builds up with every update.
What this means
Low water at Szczebra: the gauge reads 0.53 m, below normal for mid-October.
That puts it 0.05 m below the median of 0.58 m for mid-October, based on 20 years of readings. A year ago it stood at 0.59 m (−0.06 m).
Without real rain upstream, that is unlikely to change quickly. The 30-day range is 0.53 m – 0.55 m.
Early autumn is often low-water season on rivers, until steadier rain returns.
