TL;DR Summary

Most of Yosemite National Park will be closed to the public starting Friday night due to flooding concerns caused by extreme winter and early spring weather. The park is expected to remain closed until May 3, but could last longer. Snow is expected to persist at Yosemite and could remain well into July, making trails wet and muddy. Immediate refunds will be given to those with lodging or campground reservations, which will be automatically canceled.
