🌤 Weather summary and notes

🌤 WEATHER SUMMARY & NUANCES: Forecast: Daytime highs of +14°C to +17°C, dipping to +6°C at night. Expect a 35% chance of quick "May showers" and beautiful variable cloudiness. Sunset: A generous 20:40 sunset allows for long evening explorations. Clothing Advice: Layering is your best friend. Wear a light waterproof trench or stylish rain jacket. Comfortable walking shoes are non-negotiable for the cobblestones of Soho and the hills of Camden. Keep a compact umbrella handy for those sudden 15-minute London drizzles.
