Due to the Canyon Fire 2 that broke out over in Anaheim Hills it looks like some unintentionally added Halloween theming has made its way to the Disneyland Resort, thanks to the smoke and ash from the fire.
The fire made its way throughout the surrounding area in the hours following the breakout. Guests in Disneyland and at Disney’s California Adventure took to social media to post pictures and videos of the effects of the smoke.

Not only did the sky turn orange and fill with smoke, but guests also reported that ash had been falling.

At this point there are no reports of any ride closures. It seems that the fire did not effect operations at either of the two parks.
The Guardians picture reminds me of how the concept art for the ride looked.
Despite the cause, it really is a pretty cool photo.
Wow that sounds horrible!! Hopefully everything is okay!!
