What is a wildfire? A wildfire is an unplanned fire that burns in natural areas like forests or grasslands. These fires often start during hot, dry weather when a spark from lightning or human activity hits dry plants. Once ignited, the fire uses dry wood and leaves as fuel to spread quickly across the land.
Stay indoors to avoid breathing in smoky air and keep windows closed until local officials say the area is clear.
