What is a wildfire? A wildfire is an unplanned fire that burns in wild landscapes like forests or grasslands. These fires often start when dry plants catch fire from lightning or human activity. Once they begin, they can spread quickly by feeding on dry leaves and wood, especially during hot and windy weather.

Keep windows and doors closed to block out smoke, and always follow the instructions of local emergency services if they ask you to evacuate.
