🌤 Weather summary and notes

🌤 WEATHER SUMMARY & NUANCES: Expect warm, late-summer vibes with daytime highs reaching +32°C. The Tuscan sun is potent, so breathable linen or cotton is your best friend. Evenings cool down to a pleasant +18°C—perfect for outdoor dining, though a light layer is recommended. Stay hydrated at the city's nasoni (public fountains) and keep an eye out for brief, dramatic afternoon thunderstorms.
