Queensland Fire and Emergency Services (QFES) has imposed a local fire ban for South East Region residents.
The local fire ban will be in place from 00:01am Wednesday 23 September for residents in the Logan, Scenic Rim and nearby Government areas.
Authorities say conditions are perfect for bush fires to ignite and spread quickly.
Under a local fire ban, all open fires are prohibited and all Permits to Light Fire which have been issued in the designated areas have been cancelled.
Power tools may be used during a local fire ban, however QFES encourages people to use these with extreme care and ensure adequate equipment is available to extinguish any fire which may start.
This may include having a person available to watch out for any ignitions that occur.
The ban is expected to remain in place until 11:59pm Saturday 26 September.
