Brisbane is expected to endure its hottest September day in years, with temperatures forecast to reach 34C as unseasonably warm weather settles over Australia’s east coast.
The heat has prompted early fire bans in Ipswich and Lockyer Valley. The Bureau of Meteorology warned that temperatures would reach the low to mid-30s in south-east Queensland and north-eastern New South Wales.
