Informational use only. Firewatch is not an emergency service and is not an official source of evacuation orders. In an emergency call 112. Always follow the instructions of local authorities and civil protection.
Every weather feed can tell you it's 39° and windy. Firewatch compounds those same signals into a categorical Fire Weather Index and the exact actions to take — authored and verified by wilderness-medicine physicians, delivered through the GOES CORE API. Additive to your data. Impossible to fake without the medical backing.
Temperature, humidity, wind, precipitation, air quality — the feeds a weather platform already has.
Compounded against medically-validated thresholds into a categorical Fire Weather Index and severity — with an audit trail.
The exact steps to take, written and verified by wilderness-medicine physicians. Engaging, useful, defensible.
39°C · RH 14% · wind 45 km/h · no rain 24 days
Accurate signals. But it doesn't tell a person what it means or what to do — and a weather brand can't issue medical guidance.
Extreme fire danger (FWI 62).
Suspend hot works 12:00–20:00. N95 downwind. Stage water at any worksite bordering brush.
Reviewed by wilderness-medicine physicians · audit trail included.
The moat isn't the data — it's the medical authority and audit trail behind every recommendation.
Give your users what a weather feed can't: medically-validated risk and the exact actions to take, authored by physicians and delivered through the GOES CORE API.
Firewatch is not an official emergency source and does not provide authoritative fire-incident, evacuation, or shelter information. For that, consult 112, Protección Civil, AEMET, and the responsible regional agencies (for example, INFOCAM in Castilla–La Mancha).
Data is provided "as is" and may be delayed, incomplete, or inaccurate. It must not be relied upon for life-safety, evacuation, or operational decisions. GOES disclaims liability to the fullest extent permitted by law.
Guidance shown here is general information, not medical advice, and is not a substitute for professional medical care or emergency services.
The Fire Weather Index is computed using the Canadian Forest Fire Weather Index System (Van Wagner, 1987) from Open-Meteo weather data. Current conditions and air quality are from Open-Meteo. Map data © OpenStreetMap contributors.
