Fire Information Map

[Guest]

Weather Underground has some of the best weather maps on the net.
I used them religiously last weekend to keep with tornado watches and warnings.

Their new fire layer allows you get track current wildfires in your areas of interest.

Since there are currently so many fire in Texas, I figured some may find this useful.

Greg was a great guy,


Has looked like rain here all day with nothing yet. I grew up out near Eastland and fires happen every year this one seems to be one of the worst years that I can remember.

Re: Fire Information Map

Two other sources for fire info:

http://inciweb.org/

http://www.nifc.gov/

We use these sites for FD info with login but you can access a large amount of info without a login.

Thanks for the Wunderground info as I was not aware of that one.

WunderGround is a good site. I use the GRLevel3 software http://www.grlevelx.com/ It cost $80.00 but well worth it. You can download the 21 free trial. A very good free site is http://www.simuawips.com/ You can customize both to your liking. I run RadarScope on my iPhone which is a really good radar app. I'm such a weather geek....

Re: Fire Information Map

There is a pretty good chunk of rain moving across some of the fire zones right now West of DFW.
