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.

MDMA is a drug commonly known as molly or ecstasy.

Some medical professionals say it can be helpful for people with post-traumatic stress disorder — which is why a group has been fighting to get MDMA legalized as a prescription drug.

Currently, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration is reviewing an application to use MDMA to treat PTSD. The agency is expected to announce its ruling as soon as August.
