2026 Iowa Wildfires
Newest wildfires in Iowa
Largest wildfires in Iowa this season
A fire is listed here when it is located in Iowa. Each complex is counted once, through its parent: the parent carries the complex's acres, and its member fires are listed beneath it without being counted again. A fire that crossed the border is listed with the acres that burned in Iowa, not its whole reported size. A fire located elsewhere that burned into Iowa is listed too, at its Iowa acres, and is not added to the Iowa fire counts.
