Arabia Weather - Forest fires occur when the three elements needed for ignition combine: fuel (plants), oxygen, and heat. In forests, fuel and oxygen are naturally available, while the third element, heat, can come from natural or human-induced sources.

  1. California fires 2020: In the massive fires that broke out in the California forests, and destroyed an area of 22 thousand acres, a couple was accused of starting the fire after holding a party near the forests.
  2. Villager fires: There are cases where small fires have been set by villagers to keep predatory wild animals away from goats and poultry, sometimes resulting in larger fires.

Natural causes are the main driver of wildfires While fires caused by human activities are often detected early and can be relatively easily contained, natural fires can burn in brush for days before they are detected and brought under control.
