Nature Journaling Before Fire

Create a baseline of visuals and data to measure change, like a 2-D or 3-D graph or map. 

Track the temperature, moisture, and wind in your area. You can also combine and compare with red flag weather conditions or historic climate trends.

Create local fire behavior and fuel models with visuals that resonate with the local area.

Use local artists to create cover art and illustrations for fire plans and strategies. This helps enhance local knowledge and networking.

Ask questions and add research notes about local fire history in your journal.

Use nature journaling practices to help take a deep look at your evacuation route and planning. 

Use visuals to help with communication and meeting and workshop engagement.

Journal about local fire weather and vegetation conditions to help define prefire readiness decisons.
