Water Levels
Quinte Conservation monitors water levels, rainfall, and snow melt to assess flood and drought conditions. Review the information below for current river flows, trends, lake levels, and comparison to flood levels. We rely on the Water Survey of Canada gauge network for flows in the rivers and the Department of Fisheries and Oceans for Lake Ontario water levels at Cobourg and Kingston. The Government of Canada website has Lake Ontario wind and wave forecasts and an animated wave model. The International Lake Ontario – St. Lawrence River Board provides Lake Ontario outflows.
