A mountain barrier lake in eastern Taiwan has been under close watch for days as authorities warn of a possible overflow. While it was initially expected to breach on Friday, a new landslide has raised the overflow point and made the timing harder to predict. Frustrations are high for local residents, who have faced alerts and evacuations throughout the week.
