All amusement parks have lightening detectors that scan 15 to 30 miles away. As soon as there is a strike within in that range all tall rides are shut down. Most are shut down until there are no strikes within that range for 30 to 45 minutes. These rides are grounded to diffuse a strike.
Roller coasters, especially steel roller coasters, run more slowly when temperatures start getting into the 40s — because cold weather increases friction in the wheels. Cold weather also causes the track and other ride components to shrink slightly, which could lead to serious operating issues with the roller coaster.
