What is a wildfire? A wildfire is an unplanned fire that burns in natural areas like forests or grasslands. It often starts when dry plants catch fire from lightning or human activity. These fires can spread quickly if the weather is hot, dry, and windy, using trees and brush as fuel.
Stay indoors with windows and doors closed to keep out smoke, and always follow the instructions of local safety officials.
