What rides close when there's lightning? I'm assuming in addition to normal rain closures, anything with an outdoor component will close. Does this mean Splash, Finding Nemo, Matterhorn, BTM, Jungle Cruise, Train?

I don't think the train stops. But all the boat rides for sure, and then most things outdoors as well.

Thankfully, lightning is pretty rare in Anaheim. It happens only a couple times a year.
 
They don't mess around with lighting but it needs to be actual strikes in the area, not just a forecast.

Anything with exposed metal outdoors gets shut down.

True. They will shut things down once there has been a ground strike within a 10 mile radius amd won't reopen things until the last strike was more than 30 minutes ago and the radars indicate it is moving away.
