What is a wildfire? A wildfire is an unplanned fire that burns through natural areas like forests or brush. They usually start when dry wood or leaves are ignited by lightning or people. If the weather is hot and windy, these fires can move quickly across the ground.

Families should create an emergency plan and pack a 'go-bag' with essentials like water and important documents in case of a quick evacuation.
