Unusual funnel in the middle of the lake
Many people may have a completely understandable question: what kind of hole is located in the middle of the lake? In fact, this hole, which is perfectly round, is man-made. It attracts quite a lot of attention among people. The impressive spectacle is caused by excess water, which has not been seen for several decades.
In California, the hole in Lake Berryssa is a spillway that is designed for a ten-meter platinum. This spectacle is truly impressive.
When the volume of the lake exceeds a given volume, which is about 1.97 trillion liters, the excess amount is disposed of. The water exits the other side of the Monticello Dam, draining into a special opening through a pipe into Putah Creek.
Now, after several years of drought, the effect of the spillway is especially noticeable. There has now been enough rainfall to test the hole.
According to Kevin King, who is Solano's irrigation manager, the sight is truly breathtaking. Drones fly over this place, people come to take videos themselves.
