What is a wildfire? A wildfire is an uncontrolled fire that burns through wild lands like forests or grasslands. It usually starts when a heat source, like lightning or a campfire, meets dry plants and oxygen. Once it begins, wind and dry weather can help the flames spread quickly across the landscape.
Stay indoors to avoid breathing smoke and keep windows closed to maintain clean air inside your home.
