malem Posted April 8, 2016 Posted April 8, 2016 With potentially record-breaking cold in store for this weekend, there's some good news in the extended temperature outlook. Image: NOAA Climate Prediction Center, http://www.cpc.ncep.noaa.gov/ 4 Quote
Hoeter Posted April 8, 2016 Posted April 8, 2016 Steve Horstmeyer of Fox 19 in Cincinnati is predicting sunny skies for next Friday and Saturday. Highs of 61 and 66 each day, respectively. Still more than a week out. A lot can change between now and then. 6 Quote

Shawn Meyer Posted April 8, 2016 Posted April 8, 2016 Thank you for that Malem. Unfortunately if you live where I live, you just want to blindfold yourself while going to work because It was supposed to be spring here, but the weather man is being mean about it up here in Northern Ohio. Boo! 1 Quote

silver2005 Posted April 8, 2016 Posted April 8, 2016 I like the rustic feel of the building. At least they're attempting to blend it in with Rivertown. 13 Quote
calakapepe Posted April 8, 2016 Posted April 8, 2016 I think they did a good job at blending it with rivertown yet still modern using that style of stone work 12 Quote
TombRaiderFTW Posted April 8, 2016 Posted April 8, 2016 I remember someone being concerned if elephant ears would stay.. they will!That someone is very happy about this! Thanks for sharing! 6 Quote

CoasterOhio Posted April 8, 2016 Author Posted April 8, 2016 At least they're attempting to blend it in with Rivertown. Attempted? They did a really fine job with it. 11 Quote
freaks76 Posted April 8, 2016 Posted April 8, 2016 Looks like I'll have to see all the changes Sunday, a week from opening day. To much goin on at once. Kinda a drag. 5 Quote

CoasterOhio Posted April 8, 2016 Author Posted April 8, 2016 I see a moved transfer track on Diamondback. Testing today for training tomorrow? 2 Quote
MysticsTimber Posted April 8, 2016 Posted April 8, 2016 Don't you wish you were taking a ride on her right now? Yeah, me too. But we won't have to wait much longer as we are a week/7 days away from Opening Day at Kings Island, and then you'll get to experience as many ride on Banshee as you'd like! (Edit made by me.

The Interpreter Posted April 8, 2016 Posted April 8, 2016 Opening day is 8 days away. 7 days is a week. A week from today is preview night. When counting days, you don't count the first day, you do count the last. Counting YOUR way: Today, Friday: 7 Sat: 6 Sun: 5 Mon: 4 Tue: 3 Wed: 2 Thur: 1 FRIDAY: o LIFTOFF. Uh, no. At least you are consistent. 8 Quote

CoasterOhio Posted April 8, 2016 Author Posted April 8, 2016 What if he is also going by hours, but it'll be too much work to place the hours in because then he would have to be exact... If he was doing by hours as well, it technically would be 7. 1 Quote
The Interpreter Posted April 8, 2016 Posted April 8, 2016 Then it would have said hours, not seven days. And even then it'd be 8, as you would round to the nearest day. My employer is frequently ordered by courts to do this or that in a certain number of days. Counting days isn't hard. Tomorrow is a day away. Keep adding, one by one. Next Saturday is 8. It is NOT 7. If it were 7, it'd be a week away. A week from today is next Friday. Why is this so hard? It isn't. 4 Quote

Im usually pretty good at these kinds of sentences... but I just can't comprehend this one!Edit. Also.. it's literally a math problem. 16 - 8 =... 3 Quote
Hoeter Posted April 9, 2016 Posted April 9, 2016 One week from today is opening day at Kings Island. Looking outside you wouldn't know it. Got a decent dusting of snow on the front grass and on my car. Won't stick around long though as temperatures will be rising within the next few days... 8 Quote
MDMC01 Posted April 9, 2016 Posted April 9, 2016 Thank goodness, I woke up this morning and was like really, there's snow? Hopefulle it will warm up soon; 1 week! 3 Quote
CoasterOhio Posted April 9, 2016 Author Posted April 9, 2016 Suppose to be 72 and sunny on Opening Day. I think we finally see summer! 7 Quote
stashua123 Posted April 9, 2016 Posted April 9, 2016 But right now it is a cold winters morning at KI. It is amazing to see how much the weather will change in a week! Snipped from Kings Islands Webcams, found here: https://www.visitkingsisland.com/online-fun/webcams-7315_34349 8 Quote
CoasterOhio Posted April 9, 2016 Author Posted April 9, 2016 One thing I realized? It's been 10 years (on June 30th) that Cedar Fair has owned Kings Island from Paramount. 12 Quote
stashua123 Posted April 9, 2016 Posted April 9, 2016 And ten years since Son of Beast's accident(July 9th). 7 Quote
Shawn Meyer Posted April 9, 2016 Posted April 9, 2016 Won't stick around long though as temperatures will be rising within the next few days... I hope so. I feel like the weather man is just out to pick on us. Good Grief! 2 Quote
malem Posted April 9, 2016 Posted April 9, 2016 And we thought we had escaped with that early spring. It might be that the groundhog is just trolling us. In related news, here's a nice picture from the Kings Island rides department: Image: Kings Island Rides via Twitter: https://twitter.com/KIRideOps/status/718803835779747840 7 Quote
upstop Posted April 9, 2016 Posted April 9, 2016 Ugh! Glad it's there and not where I am... We missed that mess. So I guess for today it can be called the Snow Beast? Also... 2 Quote
KIDB Posted April 9, 2016 Posted April 9, 2016 Being that it snowed today, the only thing that will make it seem as if opening week is a reality would be the start of "Current Wait Times" thread! My girls and I are ridiculously excited! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 5 Quote
