What is a wildfire? A wildfire is an unplanned fire that burns through natural areas like forests or grasslands. They usually form during hot, dry weather when wood and leaves become easy to burn. A spark from lightning or human activity can start the fire, which then spreads by using dry plants as fuel.

Follow all instructions from local fire authorities and keep an emergency bag ready with water, snacks, and important documents just in case.
