What is a wildfire? A wildfire is an uncontrolled fire that burns in wild areas like forests or grasslands. It forms when heat, oxygen, and fuel—like dry wood or grass—come together. These fires can be started by lightning or human activity and spread quickly during dry, windy weather conditions.
Keep windows and doors closed to block out smoke, and always follow the evacuation instructions provided by local emergency services.
