I'm hoping for the torch on the right. Anything to get me some more fire in IOA!

Same as Hulk and Rip Ride Rockit, just some rain might be okay, but if there's lightning in the area then no.
Especially since part of the track is practically a lightning rod!
It's not a lightning rod, it's a bonus launch. With a side of crispy guests...
I’m sure it’ll just be “So and so’s Thrilling Adventure” or “Flying Cycles”. Although I wonder if they’re going to try and tie in the magical creature aspect. “Hagrids Enchanted Motorcycle and the Magical Creature Mishap” that would give the Seuss Trollies a run for their money!
I think they are putting a Faraday cage around it so that will be fine

I really don't get the whole hysteria about lightning. Sure there is a lot. I once road trough the Everglades and it almost was light the whole journey due to the many lightning strikes. But in the 11 years I lived there I only saw the lightning hit a power line across the street and it was beautiful.
And in all fairness there is more change to get shot by a gun owner or get killed in a car accident.

I cant wait to ride this thing at night. That feeling of flying past trees at night will only enhance the forest imo

It's not the gatehouse because the gatehouse connects to the wooden bridge which they are not building, the information for this ride says far away from Hogwarts, so I think the castle we see is not part of Hogwarts.
I understand from an insurance standpoint on why they close the coasters in lighting, but I'd LOVE it if anyone can actually find me a confirmed instance of a person on a moving roller coaster being struck by lightning.
Sidebar, an old roommate and I were forced to get off Manta at SeaWorld due to "inclimate weather" on a bright cloudless day. Good times

That ruins thing is definitely not Hogwarts... but that doesn’t mean the queue entrance can’t be.

Lightning strikes happen and damage personal property all the time. It’s very common. Lightning striking people is more rare because , you know , most people are afraid of lightning and know to seek shelter. Lightning struck a palm tree on my block this summer and caused a fire.
Here we go with "IOA doesn't have enough indoor ridez" again
