For Contact's lakes, Wakatipu is around 80% full, Wanaka is less than 50% full and Hawea is just under 30% full.
So all are much healthier than 2 months ago, but still a long way to go before being full.
The Clutha River down stream from the lakes is in a level 2 flood, and that is what is pushing the high HVDC transfer
