What is a wildfire? A wildfire is an unplanned fire that burns through natural areas like forests or grasslands. They often start when dry plants meet a spark from lightning or human activity. These fires can spread quickly if it is windy, helping nature recycle nutrients and clear away old, dry brush.
If you are near a fire area, stay indoors to avoid breathing smoke and follow instructions from local emergency services immediately.
