The Canadian wildfire forecasting model can be downloaded at http://www.firegrowthmodel.ca/prometheus/software_e.php http://www.firegrowthmodel.ca/prometheus/software_e.php for those curious. I've always found these predictions lacking due to limitations in weather forecasting.
- monalisauzi 6y agoCool, thanks for sharing! Yeah, there are also issues reconciling the different scales of weather data (hundreds of meters to kilometers resolution), fuel data (~30 m) , and fire dynamics (sub-centimeter). It's still pretty amazing what they've been able to do with what they have, and weather forecasting has gotten so much better in the last decade! It's a pretty exciting time for the field.
