What is a wildfire? A wildfire is an unplanned fire that burns in natural areas like forests or grasslands. These fires often start from lightning or human activity. When the weather is dry and windy, the fire uses trees and dried plants as fuel to spread across the landscape.
Stay indoors with windows and doors closed to keep smoke out, and always follow the instructions of local fire officials.
