🌤 Weather summary and notes

🌤 WEATHER SUMMARY & NUANCES: Welcome to the peak of Tsuyu , Japan's rainy season. Expect temperatures between +24°C and +28°C with high humidity (up to 85%). The rain is often a gentle, persistent drizzle that makes the city's greenery and hydrangeas look incredibly vivid. Clothing: Pack a lightweight, breathable waterproof shell or a stylish trench coat. Quick-dry fabrics are your best friend. Footwear: Waterproof sneakers or sandals with good grip, as temple stones can be slippery. The "Tokyo Shield": Do as the locals do—buy a sturdy 7-Eleven clear umbrella (¥600) for the perfect aesthetic and practical protection. AC Warning: Trains and malls are heavily air-conditioned; keep a light scarf or cardigan handy to avoid the "thermal shock."
