Have the fire weather precipitation forecasts improved ? : a case study for Terrace, B.C. / Bob Beal, meteorologist, Scientific Services Division.: En57-44/83-026E-PDF
"Fire Weather Forecasts have been issued for British Columbia since 1958. These forecasts have always included the point forecast probability of the occurrence of rain for a number of selected locations throughout the province. Twelve years ago, Nikleva (1971) verified the forecast probabilities issued for six stations over the fire weather season (May to September) from 1965 to 1969 inclusive. ... The main obejctive of this note will be to compare Nikleva's scores, for Terrace, against those derived from the forecast probabilities issued during the 1982 fire weather season (May to September)."
