On Sunday, it will still be cloudy in most places, but spring will finally break through the middle of next week. The weather charts also look sunny this coming weekend. If you are already planning to garden, take a nice bike ride or even light up a barbecue, don’t forget the sun cream. The sun is actually harmful at this time of year, warns Meteovista. “Unprotected skin can burn after just 20 minutes.”
The sun’s strength, or UV Index, will rise to a power of 4 per day next week, and the higher the UV Index, the more dangerous it is to remain unprotected in the sun. In Sun Power 4, a person with type 2 skin, which is the most common in our area, can burn within 30 to 60 minutes during sunny periods in the afternoon. By the end of the week, the sun’s strength will rise to just over 5, RMI predicts. An UVB index of more than 5 indicates an RMI as “high,” and unprotected skin burns “rapidly” when exposed to sunlight, or within 20 to 40 minutes.

The higher the sun in the sky, the stronger the sun. Because: with a high position of the Sun, the path through the atmosphere is shorter. The atmosphere mainly plays an important role in the level of radiation. Much of the radiation is filtered out by the ozone layer. The lower the sun, the longer the path through the ozone layer, and the higher the filtering rate.
At this time of year, the sun shines brightest between noon and 3 p.m., when the sun is at its brightest. The intensity will increase in the coming weeks, and from the end of May to July, a UV Index of 6 or 7 will be achieved in sunny moments. Around the longest day of the year, on June 21, the sun is at its strongest and a UV Index of 8 can be reached. At that moment, a person with type 2 skin burns “very quickly,” within 10 minutes.

Anyone entering the sun should wear sunscreen. “UV index 3 sunscreen is recommended, especially for those with fair skin who spend more than 20 minutes outside,” explains dermatologist Ilan Karavani.
Anyone who has sunscreen from last year should be careful with it, warns the dermatologist. “Once you open the sunscreen, the product loses its active properties. The formula is no longer stable after all this time, so your skin no longer gets the same protection. Products that have been exposed to the sun or in temperatures above 25°C have certainly lost many Its active properties “, apparently.
