What is a wildfire? A wildfire is an unplanned fire that burns through natural areas like forests or grasslands. They often start during dry weather when heat, oxygen, and fuel—like dry leaves or wood—come together. Once a fire begins, it can spread quickly if there are strong winds to carry the flames.
Stay indoors to avoid breathing smoky air and keep an emergency bag packed with water, masks, and important items just in case.
