Up to date reservoir level info
 
I used to use Sentinel which had decent resolution but now their site sends me to Copernicus which has such poor resolution that it is virtually useless for water level checking. So does anyone have a site for up to date level info on the SMIRD lakes or a site that updates it satellite images at least weekly with good resolution? I don't mind paying a modest fee for up to date images.

South west Saskatchewan is finally getting desperately needed rain, in Moose Jaw there is nearly 3" in the last week. I'm hoping this is happening all over western Canada and Diefenbaker is filling up!

I also use Copernicus for sat imagery. I don't find it that much different than Sentinel Hub.

Water levels from AEP.

The performance since it became Copernicus is so bad it is basically useless now. Sentinel Hub was never like this. Too bad they messed it up.

I am more wondering on SMRID reservoir levels.

There was a link posted further up that puts real time numbers to reservoir levels. I believe the number they give though is of usable capacity for irrigation purposes (but I could be wrong). I Have used it in the past to record what the level was when I have been there to give me an idea in the future if I can launch the boat or not. Keep in min ones lakes capacity can be wildly different than another.
