What May feels like
Lilac and crab-apple blossom ring the Chain of Lakes and the whole city relocates to the paths around them. Rain turns up often enough in May that a shell in the bag is smart, though it rarely settles in for a full day.
Rain arrives about 8 days of the month, so keep one flexible day in your plans.
