Usable weather, but plan around the conditions. Wear a real layer, not just a thin jacket.

Run + walk

Keep it short or wait for a clear gap if you want to stay dry.

02

Give yourself extra margin; exposed routes may feel rough.

Longer outdoor plans

Fine if you dress properly, but not a lazy warm-weather outing.
