What is a wildfire? A wildfire is an unplanned fire that burns in wildland areas like forests or grasslands. They often start from natural causes like lightning or human activities. These fires spread quickly by feeding on dry leaves, wood, and grass, especially when the weather is very hot, dry, and windy.
If you live near fire-prone areas, keep a 'go-bag' ready with water, medicine, and important documents in case you need to evacuate quickly.
