LIVINGSTON — Flooding along the Yellowstone River washed away at least one bridge and led to evacuations in Park County and evacuations in Yellowstone National Park and road closures around the region Monday.
A U.S. Geological Survey gauge near Corwin Springs showed the river flowing at 49,200 cubic feet per second at around 5 p.m. Monday, topping a record set in 1918 at 30,000 CFS.
Heavy rainfall and snowmelt are working in tandem to create historic flooding conditions. more
