What is a wildfire? A wildfire is an unplanned fire that burns through natural areas like forests or grasslands. They often start from lightning or human activity. To grow, these fires need three things: heat, oxygen, and fuel like dry wood or grass. Warm weather and strong winds can cause them to spread across the land.

Keep windows closed to block out smoke and stay tuned to local news for official updates and evacuation instructions.
