As of today, out of season, returns ~February. Earth Exhibit tracks the live conditions and flags it the moment it is on.
Victoria Falls (Mosi-oa-Tunya) reaches its highest flow each year when the Zambezi River carries the wet season’s flood through the basalt curtain.
The result is enormous volume, maximal spray and thunderous sound visible for miles.
Peak volumes typically occur after the rainy season as upstream runoff reaches the falls.
