which attractions close during rain and thunder

[smiten]

can someone tell me which rides and attractions close with the thunderstorms, also do they empty the lines for those that do close? thanks.

They were told that when a thunderstorm gets within 6 miles, all attractions that go outdoors with water are closed.

Obviously water parks and resort pools, but also Splash Mt., Kali River Rapids and even Big Thunder (it splashes through water) etc. Pirates, Small World, Mexico, & the Land rides are inside and are exempt.

Hope this helps.

I know that TT closes even for rain. Most other rides I think there has to be lightning involved to close.

The TTA closes.

Indiana Jones in MGM. We were rained out in 2002 - so
we went back in 2003 to see it (and other rides !)

Lightning within 6, not thunder.

I know they've cancelled or limited the float participation in the light parade at MK. I've seen it where they had floats but almost no characters.

In MK, Splash Mountain, Big Thunder Mountain Railroad, Dumbo, Astro Orbiter, Jungle Cruise, Aladdin, Goofy's Barnstormer, and the Parades and fireworks.

In Epcot: Test Track (closes if any rain is present), Illuminations

MGM: Indiana Jones, Backstage Tour

Animal Kingdom: Triceratops Spin, Primeval Whirl, Kali River Rapids, and my guess is that they may not have Kilomanjaro Safari, depending on how severe the storm... wonder if anything will change with the unfortunate death of that giraffe last week?

All attractions within the water parks.

All watercraft.
