What is a wildfire? A wildfire is an uncontrolled fire that spreads through natural areas like forests or grasslands. They usually start when the ground is very dry and there is plenty of wood or grass to burn. Factors like hot weather, wind, or lightning can turn a small spark into a larger blaze.

Keep windows and doors closed to block out smoke and listen to local authorities for the latest updates on air quality.
