Kings Island announced Saturday afternoon that the park would be closed Saturday and Sunday due to inclement weather.

Meteorologists have forecast 4-6 inches of snow for the Mason area Saturday afternoon into the evening. The entire Tri-State is under a Cold Weather Advisory through Monday morning as temperatures are expected to drop into single digits Sunday morning and only climb into the teens.

The amusement park, owned by Six Flags, said anyone who purchased tickets for either Saturday, Dec. 13, or Sunday, Dec. 14, may use them on any other operating day of WinterFest through Dec. 31.

WinterFest runs seven days a week from 5-10 p.m. Sundays through Fridays and 4-10 p.m. on Saturdays. The park is closed on both Christmas Eve and Christmas Day.
