🌤 Weather summary and notes

🌤 WEATHER SUMMARY & NUANCES May in Paris is the "Golden Window"—the city is in full bloom, and the air is fresh. Expect daytime temperatures around +16°C to +20°C , dropping to +9°C at night. The "Onion" Strategy: Dress in layers. A light trench coat or a stylish denim jacket is essential for the chilly mornings and late sunsets (around 21:30). Rain Check: May showers are quick but intense. Always carry a compact umbrella. If it pours, duck into the nearest Passage Couvert (covered arcade). Footwear: You will be walking on cobblestones. Leave the stilettos for dinner; opt for stylish sneakers or loafers for the day.
