Verification of the B.C. fire weather precipitation probability forecasts for 1982 / Bob Beal, meteorologist, Scientific Services Division.: En57-44/83-028E-PDF
"Fire Weather Precipitation Probability Forecasts for British Columbia have been issued since 1958 by the Pacific Weather Centre (PWC). As the probability forecasts are essential in Forest Management and for the past thirteen years no attempt has been made to review the general accuracy (the most recent was by Nikleva, 1971) it seems appropriate at this time to take another look at the forecasts. The well known verification scheme devised by Brier (1950) for probability forecasts was used."
