Sorry this isn't a Trip report, it was going to be but...

That leads me to my question: I drove an hour to Six Flags last night at 4pm and it was raining pretty steady. Was it even open? If so...whats it like during the rain at FF? Instead, my wife dragged me to the great Gurnee Mills Mall :roll: Lets here a TR from the rain last night...if there are any!

sometimes rain is good at sfgam....because it does clear out the park. But, if you're a complete coaster only person who can't open their eyes to see that there's more out there besides coasters, and all the coasters are closed, then it can suck.....

Totally understand that. I'm a coaster person, but I also understand theres more to do. Just curious for FF.... are the scareactors still out and about during rain and what not is what I was going for.

It was open, along with almost all of it's coasters. The rain was never that hard and only Whizzer, Iron Wolf (for a short time), and Ragin Cajun were down during the rain. Queues were still pretty outragous and not a whole lot of people went home due to rain.
