UV index

Note: A daily high UV index of 12 in January leads to these guidelines:
Take all required precautions, as unprotected skin and eyes can burn in minutes. Limit direct sun exposure and seek shade between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m., the time of the most intense UV radiation, noting that shade structures may not provide total sun protection. Wearing a wide-brim hat can block approximately 50% of UV radiation, protecting the eyes. To ensure you’re protected from sunburn, always use sunscreen with a minimum 30 SPF. This also fights the Sun’s radiation effects on the immune system. Warning! The Sun's UV rays intensify with reflections from sand and water.
