What is a wildfire? A wildfire is an unplanned fire that burns through natural areas like forests or grasslands. They usually form when a heat source, like lightning or a spark, meets dry plants and oxygen. Once started, these fires can move quickly if there is plenty of dry fuel and wind to carry them.
Keep your home's windows closed to stay safe from smoke and always follow the directions of local emergency services.
