🌤 Weather summary and notes

🌤 WEATHER SUMMARY: May in Copenhagen is a "Golden Window." Expect mild temperatures (+11°C to +18°C) and the longest days of the year, with light lingering until 10:00 PM. Clothing: The "Onion Principle" is key. Layer up with a light windbreaker or denim jacket for the day and a light down vest or sweater for the evening, as the sea breeze can be sharp. Logistics: May is one of the driest months, making it perfect for the outdoor-heavy Day 3 and Day 5. Keep a compact umbrella or a stylish raincoat just in case of a 20-minute spring shower.
