What is a wildfire? A wildfire is an unplanned fire that burns in wild areas like forests or grasslands. These fires start when a heat source, such as lightning or a campfire, meets dry wood or grass. Once started, wind and dry weather can help the flames spread through the trees.
Stay indoors to avoid breathing smoke and keep your windows closed if a fire is burning nearby.
