What is a wildfire? A wildfire is an uncontrolled fire that burns through natural areas like forests or grasslands. These fires form when a heat source—like lightning or a spark—meets dry plants and plenty of oxygen. If the weather is dry and windy, the flames can spread quickly across the landscape.
If smoke is nearby, stay indoors with windows closed and always listen to local officials for the latest safety updates.
