What is a wildfire? A wildfire is an unplanned fire that burns in natural areas like forests or grasslands. It usually starts from a heat source, like lightning or a campfire, combined with dry plants and oxygen. These fires can move quickly, clearing out old brush and helping some ecosystems stay healthy through natural cycles.

Stay inside with windows closed to keep out smoke and always follow the instructions and evacuation paths provided by local authorities.
