🌤 Weather summary and notes

🌤 WEATHER SUMMARY & NUANCES: Expect pleasant daytime temperatures between +18°C and +20°C, cooling down to a crisp +8°C to +10°C at night. May brings a 40% chance of light showers, so a stylish trench coat or a compact umbrella is your best friend. With nearly 16 hours of daylight, you can enjoy the "Golden Hour" for photography after 20:00. The city is in full bloom, making parks like Tiergarten exceptionally romantic, though allergy sufferers should keep antihistamines handy. Layering is key for the chilly mornings and warm afternoons.
