UV Level On The Rise
Break out the hats and sunglasses in Carroll Gardens, Cobble Hill and Boerum Hill.
With summer gearing up, UV levels are on the rise.
While Carroll Gardens, Cobble Hill and Boerum Hill were at 8 on Wednesday, within the Medium-high level, UV rays will rise to 9 on Thursday and Friday, according to Pollen.com. If Saturday is your usual pool day, it will be a bit safer, dropping back down to 8.
Patch would recommend using tons of sunscreen, but with recent dissention among experts on whether or not it is beneficial—or even safe—a hat seems a surer bet. Check out this report from U.S. Health News and decide for yourself.
