What this means
The Credit River at Streetsville is running below normal at 4.42 m.
The median for mid-October is 4.46 m, based on 21 years of readings, so the water level is 0.04 m below typical. On the same day last year the reading was 4.48 m, a difference of −0.06 m.
It has dropped 0.02 m over the past 24 hours. Without real rain upstream, that is unlikely to change quickly. In the last month it has stayed between 4.38 m and 4.85 m.
Fall is often low-water season on rivers, and it usually takes a few days of steady rain to change that.
