In the middle of the Monticello Dam in Lake Berryessa, Northern California, there's a massive drain hole. It's called the Morning Glory Spillway, but has also earned the affectionate nickname "The Glory Hole." At 22 meters in diameter, the hole sucks in water from the dam to prevent flooding at a rate of 1,300 cubic meters per second when it reaches capacity, according to Atlas Obscura. The water is carried through a large concrete pipe and emptied about 210 meters away. Follow us!: Engineering

🌊Subverting nature's course, the Monticello Dam's spillway is a spectacle like no other. This mesmerizing vortex is a ‘Glory Hole,’ the world's largest morning glory spillway with a diameter of 72 feet narrowing down to 28 feet. It's our human answer to handling 362,000 gallons of water per second in style when the dam is full. Masterful design meets raw power. #EngineeringFeats #UrbanAlchemy #MindBlowingEngineering, #WaterSpectacle, #HydroMagic, #InAwe, #FYP, #MustSee, #ViralVideo, #Amazing, #
