The Wildland Fire Management Information (WFMI) web-site is designed to support wildland fire organizations by providing current weather and lightning data, as well as historic fire occurrence data. In addition, the NWCG unit identifiers are maintained on WFMI.

MesoWest has been a source of North American weather information for millions of users from the mid-1990's through the present. We rely on hundreds of data providers who make available their provisional, non-proprietary data. Databases at the University of Utah and Western Region of the National Weather Service (NWS) store all the information. Software has been developed over the years by NWS and University of Utah staff to access, archive, and disseminate the information in graphical, tabular, and downloadable formats.

The Western Regional Climate Center, inaugurated in 1986, is one of six regional climate centers in the United States. The regional climate center program is administered by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. Specific oversight is provided by the National Climatic Data Center (NCDC) of the National Environmental Satellite, Data, and Information Service (NESDIS). The mission of the Western Regional Climate Center is to disseminate high quality climate data and information pertaining to the western United States; foster better use of this information in decision-making; conduct applied research related to climate issues; and improve the coordination of climate-related activities at state, regional and national scales.
