Predictive Services Discussion: Elevated to critical fire weather conditions will develop across much of the southern Great Basin, Southwest, and southern and central High Plains today. West-southwest sustained winds of 15-35 mph and minimum relative humidity of 10-20% are forecast over the southern Great Basin into the Southwest, with south-southwest sustained winds of 15-25 mph amid minimum relative humidity of 5-20% forecast on the southern and central High Plains. Lingering dry conditions will continue in portions of Florida stretching northeast into the Carolinas with minimum relative humidity below 30%. Scattered to widespread precipitation is expected across the northern half of the West, including heavy snow in the mountains. Well below normal temperatures across this area will lower snow levels to some valleys and basins. Snow will fall across portions of the northern Plains into the central Plains as well. Thunderstorms, some severe, are likely from north Texas into the Ozarks, Mid and Lower Mississippi Valleys, and Ohio Valley.



Base All Actions On Current And Expected Fire Behavior

Weather ? Fire Behavior Category

Discussion Points:

Can you observe the area or use scouts? What information are the scouts looking for?

Have escape routes and safety zones been thoroughly scouted? List some ways your crew will scout out an area before you begin working.

Are escape routes and safety zones marked for night use? How do you adjust marking safety zones and escape routes for night use?

Have potential dangers been located and can they be dealt with? List some dangerous fire behavior you may encounter and how you would deal with it.

Do you have access to weather and fire behavior forecasts? What is your unit's procedure for obtaining forecasts?

Can the resources you are replacing give you a thorough briefing? What information will you want to get from these resources?

To reduce risk, initiate the following:

? Post lookouts. ? Check communications. ? Retreat if you have doubts about your escape routes or safety zones, or if the situation becomes

too complex. Discuss fires where you have adjusted your actions based on current and expected fire behavior.

How would you judge the fire season? (Above normal, below normal, or average.)
