The last two Labour Day weekends have not been warm. 2015 and 2016 both reached scorching Highs of 16.4°C on the holiday Monday, with the rest of the days below 15°C, and one of 2015's Highs was even down at 8.2°C. Those weren't the coldest recent Labour Day weekend though, because that honour goes to 2000 which didn't have any days above 15°C.
More typically, the average daytime High for the weekend is 19°C, and we usually get some days above 20°C. 25°C is pretty rare though, with only 5 of the last 22 years breaking that barrier. The overall warmest Labour Day weekend since 1995 was 2013, helped mostly by some very warm overnight Lows.
As far as precipitation goes, 2015 was really rainy, and 2016 was pretty rainy and it even recorded a bit of snow (0.4cm at the International Airport, but nothing in the city).
Most of the recent Labour Day weekends have received at least some precipitation - only 1995, 1998, 1999, 2006 and 2010 were completely dry.
