The water level in the lake is constantly rising. Water level increased by two feet during last 24-hours. The outflow from the spillway has reduced.The rise in temperature in the Hunza valley is mainly contributing to the increase in the melting of glaciers. The water outflow from Attabad Lake into the spillway stands at 4500 cusecs. The increase in water level is exerting further pressure on the banks of the lake. The local administration has declared red alert in the area while parts of Karakoram Highway have also been closed due to fear of flooding in the coming days.
