🌤 Weather summary and notes
🌤 WEATHER SUMMARY & NUANCES: Forecast: Expect mild spring temperatures ranging from +9°C to +17°C (average +13°C). While the sun sets late (20:38), providing ample light for evening strolls, there is a 30% chance of quick "May showers." Clothing Advice: Layering is essential. Wear a light waterproof jacket or carry a compact umbrella. Comfortable walking shoes are a must, as London is best explored on foot. Logistics Tip: May is blossom season; keep your camera ready for wisteria and chestnuts in full bloom across the city parks.
