THIS week Logan is forecast for mostly sunny days in the mid-20s with possible showers this weekend.

Springtime brings warmer temperatures for southeast Queensland, but September wasn't always this warm.

Over that month, Logan experiences six more days hitting 25 degrees than it did in the early 1990s.

The graph (above) maps changes year-to-year, and the white arrow indicates the changing average at the Loganholme weather station.

Since the station opened in 1993, the data shows Logan's climate has become warmer during September.

Similar warming is seen across Brisbane.

Amberley recorded more than eight extra days hitting 25 degrees.

On the coast, Cape Moreton has seen the smallest change, with two extra days over 25.

Voices from your community

Farah Scott founded the Hurricane Stars Club, and has found that shifting weather determined the demand for certain activities, especially in summer.

"Yes, I have experienced a change in the temperature more than anything," she said.

"The winters are not as cold but the summers are just as hot.

"Participants now don't want to do outdoor activities in summer because of the heat, they want to stay in the air conditioning.

"Our activities are focused on helping the community to be more active outdoors and therefore make them more appreciative of the environment.

"Since the bushfires we are coordinating an effort with other local community organisations to engage community members to plant trees to hopefully replace some of the trees that were lost in the bushfires."

Fast fact

Many of Brisbane's snakes go into hibernation over winter, and emerge in spring to enjoy the warmer weather.

Several venomous snakes are found in and around Brisbane, most commonly the eastern brown snake, but also the coastal taipan, tiger snake, death adder, rough-scaled snake and red belly black snake.

Stay safe by brushing up on first aid and being aware of your surroundings, whether you're in the bush, at the beach or your backyard.
