New video from Yellowstone National Park shows intense flooding

#EastIdahoNews #Yellowstone
Beginning June 12, 2022, unprecedented amounts of rainfall caused substantial flooding, rockslides, and mudslides within Yellowstone National Park. Historic water levels caused severe damage to roads, water and wastewater systems, power lines, and other critical park infrastructure.
Here is video from inside the park.

with 8.8 million Million with a BIG M visitors each year...I have been saying for years now that we should close the park every third year to allow it and the animals to rest. But you'd think I was telling folks to put glass shards in their eyes and blink. I guess we see that GOd decided to slow traffic down a bit in Yellowstone regardless. ;)

FYI - Mother Nature hasn't been in control for years. Research "weather manipulation technology" and GeoEngineering patents.

@@kellikelli4413 You must be living on another planet. Granted humans for whatever reason feel they have to manipulate everything. Mother Nature always has and always will survive. She doesn't give a dam what humans think . Mother Earth always has and always will have the ultimate control.

build a road and populate an ancient river bed and this is what happens. sad but true.

[@chadluke5454]

It goes without saying that anything and everything that man can build, God can destroy in seconds. Makes one a little more humble.

[@lanemimnaugh7486]

I don't think that God is destroying it, I think he's answering prayer. Millions of people have been praying for rain water. I see answered prayer. ☝️🙏

If by “God” you mean “Nature” then yes.

Chad you are very correct, anything that man can build God can destroy in the seconds. ✌🏼

Never been to this gorgeous park, the video though showed destructions from the flood yet still this park amazingly beautiful🥰🌈

[@Sylvan_dB]

It is nature. Even the flood is beautiful, and painful when you see the human suffering.

[@rawbacon]

Water in incredibly beautiful, useful and life sustaining but it's also incredibly destructive.

If that were true, there would be many. The Grand Canyon was a singular event.

[@grassroot011]

@@sjleak1 Yup, had to have been the waters from the world wide flood being flushed out of the lands above the area now named the Grand Canyon. A lot of water escaping the upper lands.

I got the feeling Yellowstone doesn't want any more visitors! Let me be me, serene and beautiful, not just somewhere to have ppl to trash up and put all their things all over the place. Showing disrespect of the beauty, serenity, and home for many animals.

[@grandmaDecker]

Wow, how do you fix that?

[@JesusFriedChrist]

Blast the remaining unstable side of the hill so that it falls now instead of later, and then use the dirt that slides down to build on top of. Also use large boulders to reinforce the edge of the new road to mitigate further erosion.

Roads are washed out all over every year. They just rebuild them, usually. Famous hwy 49 in CA washed out in sections 5 years ago or so and it took forever but they just rebuilt the parts that needed it and reopened the roads when it was all done.

[@ct5625]

Newsflash: Rivers migrate over time, we've known this for centuries. While we might have assumed in the past that this movement takes millennia, it's very obvious that our impact on climate is making this process more destructive and increasingly sudden. Bends in rivers which might have lead to inches of movement over a decade in the past will happen within days with the increased severity of weather events. The solution to this is to make infrastructure more sustainable, and temporary. Instead of spending billions of $s on asphalt roads that'll be washed away in 5 years we should be focusing on temporary solutions which we don't mind losing in time, which are more adaptable, and which have a far lesser impact on the environment.
