Meteorologists use weather data such as temperature, humidity, wind speed, and precipitation to assess the risk of wildfires. High temperatures and low humidity can lead to dry conditions, making vegetation more susceptible to catching fire. Strong winds can also help spread fires quickly. By analyzing these weather conditions, meteorologists can predict the likelihood of a catastrophic wildfire and issue warnings to help prevent their occurrence. Additionally, they may use historical data and computer models to further refine their predictions.
