What is a wildfire? A wildfire is an unplanned fire that burns through natural areas like forests or grasslands. These fires often start from lightning strikes or human activity during hot, dry weather. When the ground is covered in dry leaves and wood, a small spark can grow and spread quickly across the landscape.

If you are near a fire, stay inside with windows closed to keep the air clean and listen to local news for updates.
