What is a wildfire? A wildfire is an uncontrolled fire that burns through wild areas like forests or grasslands. It starts when a heat source, such as lightning or a spark, meets dry plants and oxygen. If the weather is windy and dry, the fire can spread quickly across the landscape.
If you are nearby, stay indoors to avoid breathing smoke and follow all instructions from local emergency services immediately.
