Most of you may not know this but lately Texas has had major rain, causing minor-medium flooding.

The other day my dad told me that some of the rollercoaster had parts of them that were underwater!

It happened at the Texas park last year as well, and at Georgia, and of course New Orleans

I don't believe there is much harm done.

Coasters get slightly submerged all the time, I know it happened at SFGAm in 1995, and a couple flats were flooded in 2004 for a day or so.

Yeah, SFOT tends to flood a lot. It's a necessary evil though, they are in extreme drought so all the rain is good.
