🌤 Weather summary and notes
🌤 WEATHER SUMMARY: Berlin in mid-May is a visual feast of blooming chestnuts and lilacs. Expect pleasant daytime temperatures around +18°C to +21°C , though evenings can remain crisp at +8°C . What to Wear: Layering is your best friend. A light trench coat or a stylish denim jacket over a sweater will handle the morning chill and the afternoon sun. Rain Check: May showers are frequent but brief; keep a compact umbrella or a stylish raincoat handy for those 30-minute afternoon bursts. Golden Hours: With sunset at 21:00, you have plenty of time for "blue hour" photography along the Spree.
