🌤 Weather summary and notes

🌤 WEATHER SUMMARY & NUANCES: Expect pleasant spring weather with daytime highs of +19°C to +24°C. Crucial Tip: Lisbon’s iconic calçada (stone pavement) is notoriously slippery when damp—wear shoes with excellent grip. Evenings bring a cool Atlantic breeze (+12°C), so the "layering" rule is your best friend. Keep a light windbreaker handy for sunset walks by the Tagus.
