Six experimental burns carried out by our rural fire research team resulted in never-before-seen insights into fire behaviour.
Infra-red & visual footage captured by UAV provided new understanding of the patterns of drafts created by the fire front. More: https://t.co/amxcwO9c4L

In the meantime please use the "fire report" of the old viewer (https://t.co/9VDNwk9WzV). Click on the button with a flame next to the measurement controls and above the layer selector. We hope that this will help our users to get through the fire season without too much trouble.

[CSIR AFIS @csir_afis]

We have received a lot of positive feedback (and some negative comments as well) but what stands out is that users miss and are dependent on the LFDI forecast for custom points. We take note of your concerns and we are working on implementing this again in the new viewer and app.

[VWS Wildfires @vwsfires]

Today we remember all those who lost their lives 19 years ago in New York terrorist attacks especially the firefighters who died. #NeverForget 9/11
