fire danger
Combustion threat level
Fire danger is a measure of how likely wildfires are to start and spread, based on conditions like dryness, temperature, wind, and vegetation.
Weather services and forestry agencies issue fire danger ratings—typically ranging from low to extreme—to warn the public and guide restrictions on outdoor burning or campfires: Fire danger is high today; no open flames in the park.
