Planned a vist for tomorrow hotel,booked so can't change.

Checked the weather this morning like I do every morning, and there is a high winds alert issued!

Grrrrr weather always sucks when we go anywhere!

I live in Alton there is no weather warnings for high Winds you will be fine

I was planning on coming tomorrow , XC Weather says 50 mph winds

If that's true, will the majority of the rides close?

If it is true yes a lot of rides if not all will be closed sadly last year we had high winds and they closed the park

It sucks when the weather is against you.

Will probably halt construction on The Smiler via crane tomorrow as well if the winds are that high.

I have tickets booked to go on Monday and Tuesday. What is likely to happen if there park closes with these? Are they just void or could I swap them for another day? Coming down from Scotland so will suck quite a large amount. Not much can be done though!

Tomorrows weather forecast from the bbc, if this is correct I can't see there being many problems on park at all (famous last words lol)

Really hope it stays like this silly unpredictable weather I suppose.

I guess we can only cross our fingers! Going to be getting up very early tomorrow so as long as the rain stays away mostly, I'm sure we will have a great day.

Well here in Alton there is no wind / rain , just beautiful sunshine

Good news for us then :0)

Will be coming early May now

Well it was windy & a bit rainy, but also quite hot at times.

We had a great day, and a great stay at the hotel, water park was fantastic.

The smiler, wow, that is going to be one hell of a ride, the footprint it takes up is immense, I really cannot wait!!
