Interview with the Incident Meteorologist
Camp Creek Fire
Publication Type: News 09/06/2023
One of the many variables fire managers have to deal with is the weather. Here on the Camp Creek Fire, specialized meteorologists are onsite providing localized fire weather forecasts and conducting fire briefings for crews. They also gather information from Incident Remote Automatic Weather Stations. These portable weather stations provide near real time observational data. The instruments gather relative humidity, average and peak winds, air temperature, fuel temperature, fuel moisture, precipitation, and solar radiation.
