A WYDOT official reported mud and debris were 3 feet deep in some locations just upstream along US Hwy 14. Many people were stranded in the area as local roads and the highway were impassable. A car was totaled when the driver attempted to drive through the flooded road. A private cabin was also damaged by the flooding. Hwy 14 was closed over the next 12 hours, opening back up the following morning.
June 2017	Flood	Valley	$20,000	Snow melt flowing downstream from the Absarokas brought flooding and high water along the South Fork of the Shoshone River. At the Ishawooa Bridge, downstream from Valley and near Aldrich Creek, the high water severely damaged the bridge. The bridge remained open, but was reduced to one lane while repairs were made. Waters receded on the 11th as cooler mountain temperatures slowed snow melt.

Hail drifts were measured in feet in some areas with a few low spots accumulating close to six feet of hail. The hail prevented the heavy rain from draining easily and water accumulated on area roads. Several business owners in downtown Cody reported minor flooding as the water piled up in the streets, especially along Sheridan Avenue. A bakery had water on the floors and in the basement and a gift shop flooded.
July 2011	Thunderstorm Wind	(Cod)Yellowstone Apt	$10,000	Wind damage was reported in and east of Cody as a result of outflow wind from collapsing thunderstorms. A recreational trailer was toppled at a residence and large limbs were felled at another causing damage to an automobile and power lines.
July 2007	Flash Flood	East Entrance	$10,000	Heavy rain caused a mudslide across East Entrance Road near Sylvan Pass. The slide varied in depth from one to five feet, was about 50 feet long, and covered both lanes of the road. The road remained closed for about 14 hours until crews could open a single lane.
August 2009	Thunderstorm Wind	Powell	$6,000	An automated weather station on the far west side of Powell recorded a peak thunderstorm wind gust of 58.3 mph at 1708MST.
