Based on the following, which should an incident commander consider in order to predict the behavior of a fire? To determine the possible movement of the fire, the commander should consider the time of day and weather conditions as well as the available fuel from building contents.

Weather conditions can affect how a fire behaves and where it may move. Rain and cold are examples of weather conditions, so choice B, “rain and cold,” matches what the incident commander should consider. Hose lengths, available resources, and the number of engines do not describe weather conditions or available fuel.
