After crossing the 339 ft. level whenever today, overflow water will begin spilling out from the spillways of the Hub Dam into the ocean close to Mubarak Village.

During the most recent 24 hours alone, it is increased by more than two feet and since the time the storm rainfall this year started, has caused the water level to increase by a shocking 30 feet.
