What is a wildfire? A wildfire is an unplanned fire that burns in wild places like forests or grasslands. These fires often start during hot, dry weather when a spark from lightning or humans hits dry plants. Once started, the fire uses wood and leaves as fuel to spread across the landscape.
If smoke is in the air, stay indoors with windows closed and keep a small emergency kit ready just in case.
