Fire Weather Index (FWI)

Le contenu suivant est seulement disponible en anglais.

If you hold a burning permit for category 2, 3, or 4 fires, you are required to check the Fire Weather Index below to see if current weather conditions allow for burning. Always check your municipal bylaws, or contact your municipal office, before doing any type of burning. 

This Index is updated daily at 2pm during fire season from March 15 to November 30, inclusive. It is not updated from December 1 to March 14.
