Explanation
The phrase '(don't forget your waterproof coat)' is in brackets to indicate that it adds additional information that is useful but not necessarily integral to the main body of the text. This departure from the main body of text—that the parentheses signify (and that is settled by rule)— provides additional explanatory notes or qualifications that can assist the viewer in context comprehension.
