Generally, they do not. Fires are started by a source of ignition, such as lightning or careless humans. High winds may knock down trees onto power lines, making enough heat to cause a fire. Winds provide additional oxygen to the fire, making it more intense and helping to spread the fire by convection and by carrying burning embers.
