Run Option Notes

Maximum reliable effective wind speed limit is imposed [SURFACE].
Calculations are for the specified spread directions [SURFACE].
Fireline intensity, flame length, and spread distance are always for the direction of the spread calculations [SURFACE].
Wind and spread directions are degrees clockwise from upslope [SURFACE].
Wind is blowing upslope [SURFACE].
