Abstract: A method for the data assimilation of fuel moisture surface observations has been developed for the purpose of incorporation in wildfire forecasting and fire danger rating. In this work, we describe the method itself and also an online computer system that implements the method and combines it with the Real-Time Mesoscale Analysis to track local weather conditions and estimate the fuel moisture content in the state of Colorado. We discuss the construction of the system and future development.
