What is a wildfire? A wildfire is an unplanned fire that burns through natural areas like forests or grasslands. It usually starts when something hot, like lightning or a spark, meets dry wood and leaves. Once it begins, wind and dry weather can help the flames spread quickly across the landscape.

If you live nearby, stay indoors to avoid smoke and keep windows closed to help keep the air inside your home clean.
