Disneyland seems to be cursed when it comes to New Years Eve shows and the weather. It takes months of planning and weeks of actual preparation for a show that lasts 5 minutes and this year we got hit with a fog bank that obscured our show. This happened 3 years ago as well. Four years ago we were hit with Santa Ana winds that shot us down and prevented the show from being show.

The fog rolled in so thick that the show was not visible to anyone including my gun crew who was about 30 yards from the guns. Sounded good though. We heard the people living in Anaheim Hills above the fog said the show looked great...
