Well they've increased to outflow at Lakeport just recently. I'd guess that this new, higher rate will continue unless it threatens to re-flood downstream. From GWC's and UTS's posts it sounds like we'll be getting another inch or so of rain so perhaps the dam guys will scale back a bit. In either case I'd be concerned that the water will rise somewhat this weekend.
The inflow and outflow for the Lakeport dam can be found
here. I think there is a hour by hour chart as well but I couldn't find it. Depending on where downstream you are you might want to find the discharge rates for other dams which can be found
here. ie - the discharge from the
Winnipesaukee River might be useful to those on the Merrimac.
