Comment on Sun protective clothing

Heat and UV are correlated but weakly. It’s entirely possible that an early spring day with cool temperature and light breeze has a higher UV levels than a cloudy day with 35°.
You don’t need specific SPF clothing to get protection.
This has a good discussion about spf clothing. www.nytimes.com/…/best-sun-protection-clothing/
My personal preference is to seek shade and wear sunscreen when it’s intolerably warm, rather than to add tight weave clothing, but to each their own.

i thought UV rays generally are strongest when the sun is directly overhead, like at noon in june
