What is a wildfire? A wildfire is an unplanned fire that burns through natural areas like forests or grasslands. It often happens when dry plants, hot weather, and wind come together. These fires can be started by nature, like lightning, or by human activity, and they move quickly by using wood and leaves as fuel.

Listen to local radio stations for updates and keep windows closed to prevent smoke from entering your home.
