🌤 Weather summary and notes

🌤 WEATHER SUMMARY & NUANCES: Mid-May in New York is the "Sweet Spot." Expect pleasant temperatures (+18°C to +23°C) and lush greenery. However, the city is a wind tunnel; the breeze off the Hudson River can feel chilly. Dress Code: Think "Layers." A light waterproof windbreaker or denim jacket is essential. Footwear: You will walk 15k+ steps daily; comfortable sneakers are mandatory. Pro-Tip: Always carry a small umbrella or ponchos in your daypack for sudden Atlantic showers.
