WMUR meteorologist Kevin Skarupa said Labor Day weekend will not be a washout for Southern New England. He said more dry weather is expected to move in after showers.
“Labor Day weekend will not be a wash out,” Skarupa said. “He times when more dry weather is expected to move in.”
The forecast gives holiday-weekend planners a usable window, but not a fully dry one. Skarupa’s update points to a stretch that starts with showers and then improves as drier air moves in.
That sequence matters because the weekend is not described as all rain or all sun. Readers planning travel, outdoor gatherings, or time outside should work around the showers first and expect conditions to improve later.
Southern New England forecast
Skarupa framed the outlook around Southern New England, where the holiday weekend is the main concern. His forecast does not call for a complete washout, which leaves room for parts of the weekend to stay usable.
The practical takeaway is simple: do not treat the whole weekend as lost. The better bet is to plan around early wet periods and keep later activities flexible as the dry weather arrives.
Elsewhere in the same news update, Chandrika Shrestha was among the people rescued in Nepal on Saturday. Rescuers in Nepal pulled the 64-year-old alive from her buried home in Nuwakot district.

Rescuers in Nepal also pulled a Chinese national alive from a tunnel on Saturday. The Shrestha rescue is the detail that stands out for readers because it shows a person pulled from a buried home after the event had already turned dangerous.
That separate report does not change the weather outlook, but it helps explain why the same update carried several unrelated developments. The Labor Day weekend forecast remains the story that affects the most readers in Southern New England today.
For those making holiday plans, the message from Skarupa is to expect showers first and drier weather later. The forecast is not a washout, but it is not a clear opening from start to finish either.
