Default Alberta River Basins Website

The GoA made major changes to the site but it doesn't appear to be updating with current information from the weather monitoring stations as I check up on my favourite streams. Does anybody know if/when this is going to be fixed? This is my go to site for accurate information for stream conditions. Right now it looks broken so it's a shot in the dark if a river is fishable.

The CM3 readings usually don't start up until after the may long. I am told they have to be recalibrated after the ice clears the streams and rivers.

it works fine for many places. There are a few kinks though.

If you are looking at map, the pin with the green dot on the lower right means the station is actively measuring data.

They have made some distinct changes. I used to look at the Bow water levels at the western irrigation district (downstream of the Elbow confluence). Now, it actually measures the irrigation canal, not the Bow River. The pins seem to line up fairly closely with measurement

Looks like the central alberta streams started registering calculated flows now
