I think the pictures are nice and that it will be easier to follow the guide with a more visual example. However, I feel like putting the pictures in the middle of the guide might be confusing, since the picture might not reflect the state for a user at all depending on how the disaster looks.

I understand your concerns. Let me apply your suggestions to the page first so we can review the final result. Personally, I believe the images work well here -- they complement our disaster example effectively.
We cannot cover every possible disaster scenario. But our example includes the unavailable system db. A responsible user would not rely only on images; they would read instructions and notes.
I don't think that we have to make the guide concise. This page is not particularly long, and it doesn't hurt to scroll a bit. BTW, I'm afraid that users may miss our hidden guides when they quickly scroll the page.
It might be a good idea to ask a third person to take a look at the page and share whether the images make the guide clearer or more confusing.
