Officials say Six Flags New England will be closed Wednesday after strong thunderstorms rolled through the area and left damage.

Jennifer McGrath, a spokesperson for the theme park, said the closure will allow the team time to clean up from Tuesday night’s storm.

Officials said the park would be closed Thursday as well.

FOX6's Carmen Chau reports from Agawam that a police officer has the park entrance closed off and is telling people the park is closed because a lot of people still don’t know.
