The U.S. Forest Service is investigating a piece of the utility’s equipment that reported an incident about the time the Bobcat fire started near Cogswell Dam.Past forecasts relied on huge assumptions about the landscape and upcoming weather, but today’s forecasts are based on a web of remote weather stations, cameras and satellites merged with ground-level details on vegetation and moisture.
“We did one for the LNU Complex and it did show a rapid rate of spread,” McMorrow said, referring to what is now, at well over 360,000 acres burned, the fourth largest fire in state record books. “They are pleased with what they’re getting from it.”In August, Edison said it ran simulations of potential fires before shutting off power to circuits in Los Angeles and Kern counties.
Facing serious liability under California’s inverse-condemnation laws, utilities shut off sections of their grid on hot, windy days, when the equipment is most at risk of sparking a wildfire. Last year, such power shutoffs led to millions of Californians going for days without electricity.
roboticscats FirstputouttheFIRE! Management of our lands - and for the current conditions on the ground - will mitigate wildfire. The experts have been telling us this for years - and forecasting the wildfire pandemic.
Very interesting.
Better question: Can new technology detect ARSONISTS
That and horrific forest management.
If the algorithm can predict when white people set up a gender reveal party..
If technology can elect Democrats/Marxists, by doing so Technology will predict wildfires.
If technology can elect Democrats/Marxists, so can Technology predict wildfires.
They should use buoys tsunami and modify it to detect heat signatures and 360 degrees night vision cameras to confirm something above a certain level is happening. To know the exact location in real time. Then spread them around all forest or land that usually catches fire.
There has to be a way to catch those darn climate arsonists.
You mean cameras to catch arsonists?
It’s called Facebook. Just watch for gender reveal announcements
kuku27 More than prediction, containment methods need huge improvement in wildfires
horrible
