☁️ MYTH vs. FACT ☀️ MYTH: You can’t get sunburned on a cloudy day. FACT: Up to 80% of UV rays can pass through clouds—meaning your skin is still at risk. Even on overcast days, apply broad-spectrum SPF 30+ and reapply every 2 hours. Clouds don’t block UV! #SunSafety
Heat index values will register between 100-110 across the region this weekend into next week, with the worst conditions in the STL metro area. Remember to stay hydrated and avoid strenuous activity during the hottest part of the day if you are able! #mowx #ilwx #stlwx #midmowx
