Description

Forecast services translate current observations and predicted conditions into fire-danger levels with explicit uncertainty.

The product becomes useful when thresholds are connected to staffing, work restrictions, public communication and treatment decisions. Validation should track local fire behavior, not only forecast accuracy.
