Bad weather for opening day?

Featured Replies

From what I can see, the weather for opening day will not be very good. I saw a high of 60 and a chance of rain. Has anyone else seen anything better?

As long as it's not pouring down rain, I'll be there. We're still 11 days out so I wouldn't put too much faith in what the weather report says now. We all know how that can change from day to day. 60 degrees would be great though!

I'm planning on being there too. I'm just hoping that the forecast will change before then.

Last year it poured until about 1, and then it was fine after that. Even if the weather isn't ideal, I will do everything in my power to be there! A trip to the park is long overdue, even if it is a Boo Blasters marathon!

^^ Have you seen the line for Boo Blasters on a rainy day? I don't think you'd be marathoning it without Fast Lane.

Certainty in forecasts more than 7 days out is usually very low. Companies like AccuWeather aren't doing anyone (except their advertisers) a favor by "predicting" day-by-day highs and times of precipitation weeks in advance.

Accu Weather is saying 60 Mostly Cloudy with a shower, but we all know this report will change in the coming days!

Last year we got there early and it was okay. A bit cold. It started raining after a couple of hours, but we were ready to go by then. Apparently it cleared up in the afternoon.

It is far to early to predict what the weather will be like on April 27th, opening day for Kings Island. All you do is project based on what it has done in the past.

All I know is I'll be at opening day, rain or shine. Can't say that the Gatorettes would join me there in the rain, but I'll be there.

plus if all else fails. come check out the ALL NEW Red's Hall Of Fame Grille. check out some of the shows. do some of the indoor rides. or even ride the water rides (if there even open) for an all around splashing experience. ;)

Well, in any way shay perform, I will wear what a usual BB1 wears and go to the park......hopefully. BB1 doesn't trust the weather forecasters.

I think that weather sounds great. I love when it rains. Keeps the crowds away. Even if it rains all day I'll get my Dodgem fix.

Whatever the weather may be, it's going to be a great time. Honestly, I welcome a mid 60 degree and cloudy day.

Don't trust the weather 10 days in advance. I start trusting it within 5 days. Even then weather is just too unpredictable.

Those wanting an early indication of the weather should read NWS long-range forecasts.

Cool and dry seems to be most probable, which would be good for the Komen 5K. Wet, pink cornstarch couldn't be a good thing.

Based on what I've recently seen, about a 30-50% chance of rain, with highs in the upper 60's and lows around 50.

Just checked the Saturday forecast via weather.com's 10 day forecast (tomorrow I'll start checking the 5-day forecast)

Perfect weather.

Not quite for me. I'd rather have occasional showers and a threat of thunderstorms to keep more of the general public away and shorten up the lines somewhat. I would prefer it to be a few degrees warmer too.

Looks like it is going to be a beautiful day.

Where did you get that forecast? Accuweather says a high of 64° for Saturday. There's a big difference between 64° and 70°.
