- Abstract
- This report is largely concerned with the methods of adapting standard weather forecasts to meet the daily fire weather forecasting requirements in the Maritime Provinces. Although the program has been operational since 1964, the procedures were changed significantly in 1970 and these are described. Background information is provided on such aspects of the program as the meaning of fire danger and the fire weather station network.
