Utilize the Kestrel DROP D3FW Fire Weather Monitor to track and document weather patterns and changes over time, whether on a burn site or during a wildfire. Export the data for analysis and decision-making purposes.

Kestrel DROP D3FW Fire Weather Monitor Overview

When managing a burn site, knowing environmental conditions are within prescription is important for compliance and to ensure a fire doesn’t get out of control.  Gathering sufficient weather data from site visits to make a decision on when to burn can be challenging.  In addition to the full wind and weather readings from a Kestrel weather meter, the new Kestrel DROP data loggers can be left on site recording a history of conditions and trends which can then be viewed on a mobile device when within range via Bluetooth and shared via email.

Small, Accurate, Rugged and Waterproof

Each Kestrel Fire Weather DROP measures just 1 x 1.8 x 2.4 inches (24 x 46 mm x 60 mm) and weighs just 1.2 ounces (34 grams).  DROP loggers meet military and international standards for water, dust and shock resistance (IP-67 and MIL-STD-810G) and are conveniently equipped with a sturdy D-ring for hanging wherever needed.
