That's what SW say they are doing.

So weird considering that's probably the most put together part of the ride. Theme Parks do have a history of providing slightly misleading information or not the full story when it comes to situations like this. We just have to wait and see if they give any further updates or magically re-open the ride

Leviathan is no longer listed as under maintenance and appears to be running trains.

[REGIE]

Yes I was there today. It started testing just before 12. I was not able to get a ride in yet as I was there just for the morning 

[Noll_57]

So did the ride open to guests today? Great news is so.

As far as I know yes it did. but I had to leave at 12 and the staff outside the entrance said it should open to guests at 1:00 .    But vortex did not open

Added the fact that vortex was not operating

New member here. Leviathan is running late today but in the queue now, they seem to think it will be running in the next 10-15 minutes.

[Rivals]

For the first time, Vortex, Trident and Leviathan are all operating.

For anyone’s that ridden Leviathan after it’s downtime, is there any noticeable differences with their operations or in general?

[New display name]

Leviathan running pretty consistent now with little interruptions.  SW only running 1 trian but with the slow loading it would be almost pointless to run 2 trains.  But operations have improved.  People are now ready to load as soon as the train returns to the station and I THINK they are starting the preshow earlier.  While they are checking the harness the show is playing.  The button that opens the queue door is in a stupid place as I witness people pressing it and the attendant having to call people back out of the tunnel.  Trident was down again apparently due to high winds.🤦‍♀️

Is leviathan opening with the park yet or still a few hours later?

[New display name]

I don't know.  I got 5 rides in before it started to give me a headache.

[Vidgamer]

I am here today and leviathan hasn’t opened yet and trident opened for about 20 minutes and then shut. 

[New display name]

They will blame the Trident on the wind.

[rappa]

I mean it is crazy high winds all this week in the area. 
 

I know there is a lot of carry on about the ride not opening in the wind. And this is not me being apologist, but for anyone who doesn’t live close by the park, the last month or so has seen a stupid amount of high winds that are def not the norm. Just shitty timing. 

[Vidgamer]

It didn’t open by the time we left at about 2. Leviathan opened about 12:15, the ride wait times showed 5 mins but it was at least an hour wait. 

[joz]

I don't know so, but I suspect wind is a part of it, but not all of it. Easier just to say wind for all of it I guess. Sky Flyer didn't have this much downtime did it?

It wasn't windy when I was at the park yesterday.

[rappa]

Given people were literally getting blown down the street in Surfers I dunno about that one. 
Remember its wind at the top not the bottom that matters. 

[New display name]

I was went on Leviathan many times so I was near the top of the Trident.   I also went out on my boat in the morning and the was a 1.5m - 2.0m swell with 10 knot winds.  The stronger winds didn't happen to the afternoon.  

The Trident also has a chain SW connect to the chairs in high winds and this wasn't connected.

[Naazon]

When I was there Saturday the attendants at Trident were showing people where the wind gauges are and explaining how they operate ect.

 

It was also windy.

[New display name]

If it was windy my boat would have sunk.

My wind gauge on my boat said 10 knots.  How did you measure the wind speed?

This was the strongest recorded wind gust in the morning.

Is your boat 42 metres tall?

The highest wind gust taken from the seaway tower in the morning was 13 knots.

Learn to read.🤦‍♀️

Leviathan and vortex are down this morning. 

Leviathan having issues and staff are not sure when it will open. They said they are hoping to open it around an 1 hour or 2. 

However their is a massive queue already formed at the entrance.
