The air quality in the entire Los Angeles and Orange County areas have been affected by the fires. Many of the Orange County fires are within 15 miles of Disneyland with winds usually blowing to the west, towards the park. The high winds have died down some, which is good for the fires, but bad for the air, because the smoke spreads out over the entire area. Hopefully it will allow the firefighters to get the fires under control quickly.

YOWSA! Thanks for this info Chris! I didn't realize the fires were so close to DLR!

How far are the fires? Any chance of the fires reaching DL?
Well, the fires would have to burn through quite a bit of city to get to the Resort, so it's kind of doubtful. The fires are burning in the more rural areas (with trees/ground cover to burn). The air quality/ash is more of the problem.

Thats Correct, if the Fires were to reach Disneyland there woldnt be much left of the state of California let alone Anaheim. The City of "Disneyland" is not very far from the Big Pacific.
The air has imporoved in the area. The official air quality is currenlty listed as "moderate" for most of LA and Orange County ... That is just below "good" in the index, so about normal. Most of the fires seem to be out, or well under control.

We were in Disneyland from Sat thru Wed. Sat was horrible, it looked like it was snowing because of the white ash coming down. It was really bad. They closed down California adventure for a while and a worker told us Disneyland could close. It didn't end up closing. Sunday it was off and on. Then Mon, Tues, and Wed was great. The skies were back to blue. The closest fire was about 20 miles away.
