I like this website: Sunwise Program. It indicates the strength of solar UV radiation on a scale from 1 (low) to 11+ (extremely high). Take the time to see what the UV is in your area and develop good sun protection habits.
Today in Bellingham, WA the UV index query is 6. This is what we are advised to do:
Protection against sun damage is needed. Wear a wide-brimmed hat and sunglasses, use sunscreen SPF 15+ and wear a long-sleeved shirt and pants when practical. Reduce your exposure to the sun's most intense UV radiation by seeking shade during midday hours.
