WEEKLY NONCOMPLIANCE REPORT

The Remote Automatic Weather Stations (RAWS) listed in the noncompliance report are overdue for annual service based on current WFMI information. These stations may be transmitting accurate meteorological data, but do not meet Fire Weather Station Standards for maintenance. Use of data from these stations to support critical fire-fighting decisions is not recommended. This report will be released on a weekly basis.
