Churchill River below Traverspine River water level

What this means

At 0.30 m, the Churchill River below Traverspine River is below normal for mid-October.

The median for mid-October is 0.50 m, based on 9 years of readings, so the water level is 0.20 m below typical. On the same day last year the reading was 0.14 m, a difference of +0.16 m.

The level is falling, down 0.11 m over the past 24 hours. Without real rain upstream, that is unlikely to change quickly. Over the past 30 days it has moved between −0.05 m and 0.64 m.

Fall is often low-water season on rivers, and it usually takes a few days of steady rain to change that.
