As summer winds down, the Labour Day long weekend is here to usher in the final days of sun-soaked fun in the Waterloo Region. This holiday marks the transition from August heat to the crisp embrace of autumn, and luckily, the forecast is looking bright with temperatures soaring up to 24°C by Sunday!

However, brace yourself for some traffic on the roads! With students moving into local colleges and universities this weekend, expect delays as they settle in.
