The 2026 Mississippi wildfires are a series of active wildfires currently ongoing in Mississippi.
While the typical "fire season" in Mississippi varies every year based on weather conditions, most wildfires occur in between January–March and July–November.[1] However, hotter, drier conditions can allow wildfires to start outside of the typical fire period. Wildfires are most prevalent between January and March. Vegetation is abundant during these periods, while overall conditions typically result in a humid subtropical climate. The increase of vegetation (fuel) and reduced moisture levels can make the fires spread easier.[2]
