What is a wildfire? A wildfire is an unplanned fire that burns in natural areas like forests or grasslands. These fires often start when dry plants are ignited by lightning or human activity. Once started, hot weather and wind can cause the fire to spread quickly through trees, grass, and brush.

Stay inside with windows closed to avoid smoke, and listen to local authorities for the latest safety updates and evacuation routes.
