If the ride is incapable of operating in the rain, why the hell did they even build the dam thing?
I think they were probably talking about the solid month in which we had snow on the ground. The UK usually gets a few days of snow across the whole year. So I would say that delayed parts of the construction, therefore pushing their testing back. Now they've run across the usual teething problems you get with a new ride (I imagine) and because of the delays, they haven't managed to resolve the issues in time.
