Fire Weather Estimates. Thresholds in Area Section Fire Weather Estimates provide detailed forecasts of expected weather and fire danger indices and are used by jurisdictions for bushfire preparedness and planning. There is an area data section of the fire weather estimates, which gives the percentage of district, start time, and number of hours above certain fire danger index thresholds. The thresholds provided in each state vary considerably. There is a case for some variation due to climatology (i.e. in Tasmania), but other variations are not required given the volatility of the index to small input changes. It was agreed that the thresholds be standardised to standard 4 levels where possibly, allowing only for acceptable differences due to climatology. Standard Service
