What is a wildfire? Wildfires are uncontrolled fires that burn through natural areas like forests and grasslands. They often start when dry plants catch fire from lightning or human activity. These fires need fuel, oxygen, and heat to burn, and they can spread quickly if the weather is very windy or dry.
If you are in the area, stay indoors to avoid breathing smoke and follow all instructions from local safety officials.
