The 'Glory Hole' in Lake Berryessa, California, overflowed for the first time in six years after significant rainfall from atmospheric rivers raised water levels. This event attracted crowds eager to witness the spectacular sight of water gushing into the spillway. Lake Berryessa News reported on the situation leading up to the overflow, which occurred on February 5, 2025, when water levels exceeded the spillway's height. The previous years of drought had kept the Glory Hole nearly dormant, highlighting the stark contrast of this dramatic resurgence in water levels.
An eye-catching "Glory Hole" in a California lake has spilled over for the first time in six years, creating dramatic visuals that drew crowds of people.
Photos and videos show water gushing into the hole after back-to-back atmospheric rivers poured several inches of rain over northern California, raising Lake Berryessa water levels.
It's certainly possible, even probable, that Glory Hole will overflow during this first week of February 2025, the group said on Facebook on Feb. 4.
The question is no longer when it will spill, but how high will the lake get, the group said.
