Texas Fire Danger (TFD)

Texas Fire Danger (TFD) maps are produced by Version 4 of the National Fire Danger Rating System (NFDRSv4). Weather information is provided by observations from remote, automated weather stations and forecasts from the National Weather Service. The information is then used as an input to the NFDRSv4 Command Line Interface (CLI). The NFDRSv4 processor in the CLI produces a fire danger rating based on fuels, weather, and topography. Fire danger maps are produced daily.
