Parts of Yellowstone National Park in the US are underwater after the region was hit by unprecedented rainfall and flooding.

All of the park’s entrances have been slammed shut, with the National Park Service confirming no visitors will be allowed to enter until further notice. 

This is the first time the park has been closed in 34 years.

There are also warnings many roads could be closed for an “extended period of time” due to the rainfall. 

Some parts have already seen substantial flooding, rockslides and mudslides with other areas on the verge of being flooded completely. 

The park’s first priority has been evacuating visitors near the northern loop of the area with the southern loop being evacuated shortly after. 

The National Weather Service has also issued flood warnings for some areas due to what authorities are calling “excessive” rainfall advising campers and hikers to avoid streams or creeks.
