Lake Berryessa's spillway, known as the Glory Hole, is functioning again for the first time since 2019 after atmospheric rivers caused the water level to rise to 440 feet. This flood mitigation structure is crucial for managing water levels in the lake, which serves local residents, agriculture, and wildlife habitats. Previous activations occurred in 2006 and 2017, and this reactivation is a significant event for the community, especially amidst the recent heavy rainfall that saturated Northern California.
The Glory Hole at Napa County's Lake Berryessa has resumed its flood mitigation function after six years, activated by recent atmospheric river rains.
Local authorities and residents are pleased with the activation of the Glory Hole, which impacts water supply for local agriculture and habitats.
