The dataset presents projections of fire danger indicators for Europe based upon the Canadian Fire Weather Index System (FWI) under future climate conditions. The FWI is a meteorologically based index used worldwide to estimate the fire danger and is implemented in the Global ECMWF Fire Forecasting model (GEFF). In this dataset, daily FWI values, seasonal FWI values, and other FWI derived, threshold-specific, indicators were modelled using the GEFF model to estimate the fire danger in future climate scenarios. The dataset is now available to be downloaded from [https://cds.climate.copernicus.eu/cdsapp#!/dataset/sis-tourism-fire-danger-indicators?tab=overview](https://cds.climate.copernicus.eu/cdsapp#!/dataset/sis-tourism-fire-danger-indicators?tab=overview)

This dataset was produced on behalf of Copernicus Climate Change Service for the SIS European Tourism contract.

Is it possible to&nbsp;download the data straight from the CDS? I couldn't find a way to do it.&nbsp;

You can download data online using the CDS web interface at [https://cds.climate.copernicus.eu/cdsapp#!/dataset/sis-tourism-fire-danger-indicators?tab=form](https://cds.climate.copernicus.eu/cdsapp#!/dataset/sis-tourism-fire-danger-indicators?tab=form)

Alternatively, you can download the data programmatically using the [CDS API service](https://cds.climate.copernicus.eu/api-how-to).

Please check the [Climate Data Store (CDS) documentation](https://confluence.ecmwf.int/display/CKB/Climate+Data+Store+%28CDS%29+documentation) for further details on how to make the most of it!

Hi Anabelle,

I tried to create an account to download the datasets, unfortunately I am still waiting for the confirmation email for 3 days now and still have not received any.

Thanks in advance.

Regards,  
Aileen

Hi Aileen,  
Please raise a ticket with our Support team [here](https://jira.ecmwf.int/plugins/servlet/desk/portal/1/create/202) to have the issue with your CDS account sorted out 🙂

Hello! I wanted to download new data on the Fire Weather Index, but in this link it says that it will not be updated anymore? Is that correct? ([Fire danger indicators for Europe from 1970 to 2098 derived from climate projections](https://cds.climate.copernicus.eu/datasets/sis-tourism-fire-danger-indicators?tab=overview))

Is there any other way to be able to download/calculate a regional FWI?

thanks!
