Do most rides still operate during thunderstorms? I'm assuming things like the Carousel, Tea Cups would shut down, but indoor things like POTC, Peter Pan etc... do they still run?
 
Indoor attraction will continue to run normally. Rides with an outdoor component will close.
The carousel is actually an exception. I have seen running in some of the worst storms

Depends on whether there is lightning within a certain distance of the park. If there is, "outdoor attractions" close until the lightning clears the safety zone.
 
I've been in the Park when SDMT and BTMRR were closed for thunderstorms due to the outdoor component mentioned by a PP.
 

I've had outdoor attractions plus POTC because it flooded with all the rain on one of my trips
