When it rains

[StarbuxNY]

*Just in case it rains* during our trip (I mean more than the passing shower or storm that seems to be the norm) - when it rains consistently, light, medium, hard whichever - are there indoor attractions that stay open?

For example, if the ride part of FJ is indoor, does that keep operating in bad weather?

At what point does everything shut down?

Just trying to prepare. TY!!

Indoor attractions--and there are quite a few--are not impacted by weather.

Believe only lightning within a few miles closes down outdoor rides. Believe roller coasters and everything will run in the rain, unless there is lightning close to the park.

They might close coasters in very heavy rain, but other than that everything stays open in only rain.

lightening is what will close the rides.

many of the rides at the studios are indoors.

i have been at both parks in down pours.
most of the rides will still operate.

Thank you all for your responses! This is great to know ... I was worried about things shutting down. Worst case scenario, we get very wet but it is still an experience!

Nothing like riding the roller coasters while it's pouring rain, it's great.


The water rides are also fun in the rain.

We were there just last weekend and on friday it rained all day long. All the rides stayed open ( we were at the studios) plus almost all the shows kept going. The only show was the blues brother did not do the 1:30 show but did the 3:30 show !!

Riding is a coaster in the rain is painful....just sayin.

Other posters are correct I was just there from the 1st through the 8th. Buy a poncho because once your wet the air conditioned lines at the attractions can get cold. On the plus side sometimes the park attendance thins so the wait times are shorter. We really got through the attractions after a few hours of rain and people left.
