What is a wildfire? A wildfire is an unplanned fire that burns through natural areas like forests or grasslands. They usually start when something hot, like lightning or a campfire, ignites dry plants. These fires can spread quickly by using dry leaves, wood, and wind as fuel to move across the landscape.
If you are near a fire, stay indoors with windows closed to keep smoke out and follow local safety instructions.
