Environmental Instruments for Wildland Firefighting

Wildland firefighters have to keep up with many environmental factors that affect the growth and control of a wildland fire, such as wind speed, wind direction, humidity, and temperature. Wildland firefighters use instruments like weather meters, altimeters, and wind meters to easily assess outdoor conditions. 

Wildland Weather Meters and Monitors

Fighting a wildfire requires access to weather monitors and meters from the best name brands in the industry. At Curtis - Tools for Heroes, we provide wildland firefighters with an impressive selection of Kestrel digital weather meters, along with a JIM-GEM fire weather instrument kit and Dwyer hand-held wind meter for good measure. We also have Rite in the Rain notebooks for firefighters wanting to record the environment during a wildland fire.
