A detection is a heat signal seen from space, not burned area or a count of separate fires.

How sure is this?
  • Daily fire weather: the Open-Meteo weather forecast, most reliable for the first 3 days.
  • Next 7 days: tested on 6 past years, the model ranked a week that turned busy above a quiet one 86 times in 100 (the season alone: 72).
  • Next 3 months: the real total fell inside the likely range 76 times in 100 (the usual range alone: 71).
  • Beyond 3 months: the usual year. 8 in 10 past years fell inside the grey band. Weather that far ahead is not known.

25-year history

The raw record jumps in 2012 when VIIRS arrives; the harmonized record does not.

Jump test (Pettitt): the raw record jumps in 2013 to 2.8× its earlier level (p 0.02). ODLAR's record changes level in 2016 (p 0.03): a real change, or a trend.
