    I’m peeling from just the hot blast we had the other week.  Always need sun protection, and I’m not fair skinned.
  • Sunburn has nothing to do with the air temperature, it is all to do with the intensity of UV light. As the atmosphere blocks UV strongly, sunburn is a very much greater greater risk when the sun is high in the sky, and also when you are at high altitude. When the sun is less than 30 degrees above the horizon you will get very little burning at sea level.

    TTC, as a complete aside, why do you did out grass from your path? Does it cause problems? Thanks

    It's a brick path @Fire and if I don't remove the grass at least once a year it just grows right over it. I last did it about this time last year and in 12 months it had encroached onto the bricks to the extent of up to 6 inches either side!

    Yes AC except that I got pinky brown a couple of weeks ago when the sun wasn't that high but it was low 20s cos there was no wind.

    @Blue Onion challenge accepted! Although I may wimp out tomorrow as it's forecast cloudy here - but Sunday looks likely :)

    We have nice weather scheduled.. but as an elementary teacher living in suburban Mormon-ville.. I am concerned they might go after my teaching license if I'm spotted!  They wear special full body underwear to church.. nudity is next to pedophilia in their book.. right there side by side with homosexuality.   :/
