What is a wildfire? A wildfire is an unplanned fire that burns in wild areas like forests or grasslands. They often start from natural causes like lightning or human activities. To grow, a fire needs heat, oxygen, and fuel like dry leaves or trees to keep the flames moving across the landscape.
If you are nearby, stay indoors to avoid breathing smoke and keep an emergency bag ready with water and a flashlight.
