What is a wildfire? A wildfire is an unplanned fire that burns through natural areas like forests or grasslands. It forms when a spark—from lightning or human activity—meets dry plants, which act as fuel. In hot, windy weather, these fires can move quickly across the landscape, changing the environment as they go.
Always have an emergency kit ready and follow the instructions of local fire authorities to stay informed and safe.
