What is a wildfire? Wildfires are large, uncontrolled fires that burn through natural areas like forests or grasslands. They often start when dry wood or leaves catch fire from heat sources like lightning or human activity. Once sparked, the fire can spread quickly across the landscape, fueled by dry weather and strong winds.
Keep windows and doors shut to keep smoke out of your home, and always follow the instructions of local fire officials.
