Northern Idaho and western Montana summer 2000 wildfires
"Federal and state land management organizations recognized the wildfires of 2000 as historic in both extent and duration. Due to the impact of these wildfires, a Service Assessment Team examined the warning and forecast services provided by the National Weather Service (NWS) to fire control agencies, emergency managers and the public in northern Idaho and western Montana. For the purpose of this document, Northern Rockies will be used interchangeably with northern Idaho and western Montana. While the wildfires threatened many parts of the country, the Service Assessment centered on the Northern Rockies due to the unprecedented magnitude of the suppression effort, the extraordinary level of weather services provided and the critical role timely and consistent weather information played in fire fighter and public safety and suppression activities"--Preface.
