Upper Kedron is currently experiencing the conditions shown in the live forecast above. Located about 12 kilometres west of Brisbane’s centre, the suburb has a humid subtropical climate, with hot, wet summers and mild, dry winters.
What is the typical weather pattern for Upper Kedron?
Upper Kedron sees summer maximums around 29°C with high humidity, while winter days average a milder 21°C. Afternoon thunderstorms are common from November to March, often bringing heavy rain and hail. The area’s elevated terrain means it can be a few degrees cooler than the inner city, and fog is not unusual on winter mornings.
How can I monitor conditions locally?
The Bureau of Meteorology’s Brisbane radar at Mt Stapylton is the most reliable tool for tracking approaching rain. For a more local view, the upper kedron weather radar loop on third-party sites like Weatherzone shows fine-scale movement. Checking the bom kedron station observations gives real-time temperature, wind and rainfall data for the immediate area.
Does Upper Kedron get storms as often as the coast?
Yes, storm frequency is similar to coastal areas like Redcliffe weather patterns, but Upper Kedron’s inland-hill location can produce more intense downpours and hail due to orographic lift.
Where is the best place to check bom radar for this suburb?
The Mt Stapylton radar (115 km range) covers Upper Kedron well. Set the overlay to “Brisbane” and zoom to the western suburbs for the clearest view of approaching cells.
How does Upper Kedron’s weather compare to Brisbane city?
Upper Kedron is typically 1–2°C cooler than the CBD, especially overnight, and receives about 10% more rain due to its elevation on the foothills of the D’Aguilar Range.
