What is a wildfire? A wildfire is an uncontrolled fire that burns through natural areas like forests or scrubland. These fires usually start during hot, dry weather when a spark from lightning or people hits dry leaves and wood. Once a fire begins, it can spread quickly across the landscape fueled by wind.

Stay informed by listening to local radio alerts and keep windows closed to protect your family from breathing in smoke.
