Live forecasts update automatically; written guidance last reviewed 23 June 2026 by the Reef Brief Weather Desk. Data from the Bureau of Meteorology (BOM) and other national met services via Open-Meteo.

Forest Glen today will track the live forecast above, with conditions typical of the Sunshine Coast hinterland. Expect a mild morning, a possible afternoon shower, and light easterly breezes. Humidity stays moderate through the day.

What drives Forest Glen’s weather?

Forest Glen sits about 10 kilometres inland from the coast, so it feels the blend of sea breezes and inland heating. Afternoon storms are common from spring through autumn, often moving in from the west. In winter, early fog burns off to a clear, crisp day.

How does Forest Glen compare to nearby towns?

Nambour and Buderim share a similar pattern, but Forest Glen’s valley location can trap cooler air overnight. For a broader look at the region, check beerwah weather and noosa weather — both sit on different sides of the same weather systems. The bom radar at Maroochydore is the best tool to track approaching rain bands; gympie weather further north often signals what’s coming.
