Svärdsjö water level

What this means

At 6.28 m³/s, Svärdsjö is below normal for mid-October.

That puts it 9.22 m³/s below the median of 15.5 m³/s for mid-October, based on 21 years of readings. A year ago it stood at 21.1 m³/s (−14.82 m³/s).

The level has held steady over the past 24 hours. Without real rain upstream, that is unlikely to change quickly. Over the past 30 days it has moved between 3.24 m³/s and 7.15 m³/s.

Early autumn is often low-water season on rivers, until steadier rain returns.
