, 0.0-2.9 Low- A UV Index reading of 0–2 means low danger from the sun’s
UV rays for the average person.
Wear sunglasses on bright days. If you burn easily, cover up and use
broad-spectrum SPF 30+ sunscreen. Bright surfaces, such as sand, water,
and snow, will increase UV exposure.
3.0-5.9 Moderate - A UV Index reading of 3–5 means moderate risk of
harm from unprotected sun exposure.
Stay in shade near midday when the sun is strongest. If outdoors, wear
sun-protective clothing, a wide-brimmed hat, and UV-blocking sunglasses.
Generously apply broad-spectrum SPF 30+ sunscreen every 2 hours, even
on cloudy days, and after swimming or sweating. Bright surfaces, such as
sand, water, and snow, will increase UV exposure.
6.0-7.9 High - A UV Index reading of 6–7 means high risk of harm from
unprotected sun exposure. Protection against skin and eye damage is
needed.
Reduce time in the sun between 10 am and 4 pm. If outdoors, seek shade
and wear sun-protective clothing, a wide-brimmed hat, and UV-blocking
sunglasses. Generously apply broad-spectrum SPF 30+ sunscreen every
two hours, even on cloudy days, and after swimming or sweating. Bright
surfaces, such as sand, water, and snow, will increase UV exposure.
8.0-10.9 Very High - A UV Index reading of 8–10 means very high risk of
harm from unprotected sun exposure. Take extra precautions because
unprotected skin and eyes will be damaged and can burn quickly.
Minimize sun exposure between 10 am and 4 pm. If outdoors, seek shade
and wear sun-protective clothing, a wide-brimmed hat, and UV-blocking
sunglasses. Generously apply broad-spectrum SPF 30+ sunscreen every
two hours, even on cloudy days, and after swimming or sweating. Bright
surfaces, such as sand, water, and snow, will increase UV exposure.
11.0+ Extreme - A UV Index reading of 11 or more means extreme risk of
harm from unprotected sun exposure. Take all precautions because
unprotected skin and eyes can burn in minutes.
Try to avoid sun exposure between 10 am and 4 pm. If outdoors, seek
shade and wear sun-protective clothing, a wide-brimmed hat, and UV-
blocking sunglasses. Generously apply broad-spectrum SPF 30+ sunscreen
every two hours, even on cloudy days, and after swimming or sweating.
