What is a wildfire? A wildfire is an unplanned fire that burns through natural areas like forests. These fires usually start when dry grass or wood is ignited by lightning or people. They can grow quickly if it is hot, dry, or windy, using trees and plants as fuel to keep burning.
Stay indoors and keep windows closed to avoid breathing in smoke, and always listen to local authorities for evacuation instructions.
