    Does Wicker Man close in bad weather?

    Wicker Man keeps running in rain but is one of the first rides to close in high wind, because tall outdoor rides are wind-restricted for safety. All outdoor rides at Alton Towers stop immediately during thunder and lightning and restart once the storm has passed the resort.
