What is a wildfire? A wildfire is an unplanned fire that burns through natural areas like forests or grasslands. These fires form when a heat source, such as lightning or a campfire, meets dry fuel like wood and leaves. Once started, wind and warm weather can help the fire spread across the landscape.

Stay informed by listening to local emergency broadcasts and make sure your family has a basic kit ready with water and essentials.
