Yeah, it's often like that with the UV ("Extreme") or, if not, then "High". In summer (real summer, rather than official summer) we tend to hit the beach at about 3-4-5pm, as often the tourists have moved off then, having blistered their office-pale skin to second-degree burns during the worst part of the day. My family's had its fair share of melanomas in the past, and the Loved One's Irish skin recently had some of the usual suspects burnt/frozen off. "Slip, slop, slap" as the ad' here goes ("Slip on a shirt, slop on some sunscreen and slap on a hat").
Cheers,
Marc (with lots of hats)
