The Agencies will cooperate in the gathering, processing, and use of fire weather data including the use of remote automatic weather stations (RAWS) and joint use of computer software. If deletions or additions to the system are necessary, the Agencies will jointly evaluate the proposed deletions or additions, and must, in order for the deletions or additions to become effective, agree in writing to those deletions or additions. Costs for the operation and maintenance of RAWS and Montana Department of Transportation weather stations shall be set forth in OPs. The Agencies to this Agreement agree to cooperate and coordinate the utilization of Incident Meteorologist services to support responses to wildfires, as described within the Interagency Agreement for Incident Meteorological (IMET) Services in Response to State-Requested Assistance of Wildland Fire Management (IMET Agreement) between the NWS and Forest Service. The Agencies will follow the provisions described in the IMET Agreement, along with any procedures detailed within the standard OP for this Agreement.

Fire Weather. Weather is the most variable element in the wildland fire environment and the least predictable. The important components of fire weather are temperature, relative humidity, precipitation, wind and atmospheric stability. All of these elements have the potential to retard or enhance wildfire spread and intensity. The average annual precipitation in the City and surrounding areas is 30.13 inches with the majority of the precipitation occurring between October and April. January is historically the wettest month of the year with rainfall averaging 6.2 inches (xxx.xxxx.xxx.xxx/, accessed August 2019). Since the City Xxxx lies in an inland valley of the Coast Range, approximately 22 miles east of the Pacific Ocean, the intrusion of the marine layer inland brings low clouds and fog in the spring and early summer months. This retards wildfire spread during those time periods. August is the warmest month of the year in the Planning Area with an average maximum temperature of 82.8° Fahrenheit (F). However, extremely hot temperatures can occur in Santa Xxxx, with a high temperature of 107° F recorded at the Santa Xxxx RAWS in September of 2017. Diablo winds are offshore wind events that flow northeasterly over Northern California’s Coast Ranges, often creating extreme fire danger for the San Francisco Bay and surrounding areas. Besides high wind velocities, two very important aspects of Diablo wind flow are the warming and drying of the air as it descends the xxx of the mountain range (Xxxxxx 2018). The Xxxxx and Nuns fires of October 2017 burned under Diablo wind conditions. During the evening of October 8th and early morning hours of October 9th, winds were sustained at 26 miles per hour with gusts as high as 68 miles per hour. The average temperature and relative humidity for this period were 70° Fahrenheit and 6%. Diablo wind events are most frequent in the fall when fuel moistures are at their lowest levels, greatly increasing fire spread (Figure 15).

Related to Fire Weather

  • Inclement Weather 24.1 This Inclement Weather clause sets out the full rights, obligations and entitlements of the parties and establishes the conditions under which payment for periods of inclement weather shall be made.

  • Severe Weather An employee who is late for a scheduled shift during a severe weather day will be offered the opportunity to work his/her full regular schedule of hours if work is needed, without suffering any pay deductions taken from such employee’s regular scheduled work day providing such employee completes his/her shift. Severe weather days are days when weather hampers mass transit (e.g. buses and ferries) from transporting travelers to their destinations. If weather conditions are such that driving to work would be hazardous, roads are closed, or travel to work would result in extreme hardship, an employee may use his/her PTO time if unable to report for work. EIB is not available for severe weather days. Employees are required to provide notification as soon as practicable if they are going to be late or unable to report for work.

  • Fire Fighting Costs of operating and maintaining the fire-fighting equipments and personnel, if any.

  • Weather 6.1 No extension of time shall be granted for delays resulting from normal weather conditions prevailing in the area as defined by the average of the last ten years of weather data as recorded by the U.S. Department of Commerce, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration at the Fort Lauderdale Weather Station.

  • Wet Weather In the event of wet weather, work in the open will continue until the particular work in hand can no longer be done safely and efficiently. Whilst it is raining, employees will be required to: Continue to work under cover or relocate to alternative work under cover, on site. Obtain materials and services for employees working under cover where there is only minimal exposure to inclement weather. When required, perform emergency and safety work. In addition, work on unexpected breakdowns, which can be corrected in limited time duration. Should a portion of the project be affected by wet weather, all other employees not so affected shall continue working in accordance with award conditions, regardless that some employees may be entitled to cease work due to wet weather. If a halt to productive work occurs due to inclement weather, the parties agree that employees may be relocated to other unaffected sites. Where the above steps are not possible, affected employees may be required to attend tool box meetings, work planning sessions or skills development activities, all of which will count as productive time for payment purposes.

  • Inclement Weather Days Employees shall not report to work when schools are closed for inclement weather. In an emergency situation (e.g. Board packet day) when an inclement weather closing occurs, an employee(s) may be called in to work if there is a supervisor present in the work location. Said employee(s) shall receive compensatory time off for the time worked.

  • Infrastructure Vulnerability Scanning Supplier will scan its internal environments (e.g., servers, network devices, etc.) related to Deliverables monthly and external environments related to Deliverables weekly.
