Florida Forest Service Wildland Fire Danger Index (FDI)



The Wildland Fire Danger Index (FDI) is a continuous reference scale for estimating the potential for a fire to start and require suppression action on any given day. The FDI in Florida uses two separate components: the forecast/actual Energy Release Component and the forecast/actual minimum relative humidity. The forecast FDI is based on the National Weather Service forecast for that particular area, the actual is based on the observations taken at 1300 hours (1:00 PM).
