Kings Island will not open for Winterfest Monday night, due to concerns over inclement winter weather, according to a Tweet from the company.

Ohio is in the midst of back to back winter storms. On Sunday, areas around Cincinnati, which is 20 miles south of Ohio's Kings Island, had 2-3 inches of snow. Areas around Kings Island on Monday could also see another couple inches of snow, in addition to some freezing drizzle.

The park stated that tickets purchased for Monday night will still be valid for any other night while Winterfest is open, through December 31.
