Plaza Grill water level

What this means

At 16.28 m, the Barge Canal at Plaza Grill is below normal for mid-October.

The median for mid-October is 16.40 m, based on 21 years of readings, so the river level is 0.11 m below typical. On the same day last year the reading was 16.30 m, a difference of −0.02 m.

It has barely moved over the past 24 hours. Without real rain upstream, that is unlikely to change quickly. Over the past 30 days it has moved between 16.26 m and 16.30 m.

Autumn rain usually starts to lift rivers again after the summer low.
