Short summary
This paper presents a data-driven wildfire simulator for forecasting wildfire spread scenarios at a reduced computational cost that is consistent with operational systems. A wildfire spread simulator combined with an ensemble-based data assimilation algorithm is indeed a promising approach to reduce uncertainties in the forecast location of the fire front and to introduce a paradigm shift in the wildfire emergency response.
