Quake Lakes
As the quake has shaked the big stones off from the mountains, the stones jam the drainage of rain water between the mountains; such accumulation of water becomes lakes threatening the low places where the refugee settles now.

The barrier lakes are under control according to the local news, however the situation is still grim.
