Magic Mountain!
What happens when it rains?
Park attendance drops if we can wait out the rain.
Thunderstorms or strong rains close Magic Mountain
Moderate rain will close outside rides
Light rain will close up to half the available rides
What rides do we go on from park opening?
We should arrive at the parking lot over one hour before Magic Mountain officially opens. These strategies focus on reducing the walk time between popular rides with the longest wait times.
