Abstract
The predictions of future events has fascinated humanity since the beginning of history. This attraction has permeated into science and engineering, where several disciplines has emerged providing the capability to forecast dynamics within some lead time. Weather forecast is the most important and the most developed one. The concept of FireGrid is a paradigm shift in the response to emergencies, providing the fire service with essential sensor information. This information will also include forecast of the fire dynamics. But many questions remain to be answered. This talk explores the potential methodology to forecast fire dynamics in enclosures, drawing lessons also from weather forecast. www.firegrid.org
