River Lee: water levels along the river

We have 8 gauges on the River Lee. 3 are below normal for the date and 1 is above. The balance is tilted firmly towards low water.

On this page the river runs through Bedfordshire, Hertfordshire and Greater London. 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. Autumn is often a low point for rivers after the summer, until steady rain returns.
