First pain free run today that iv'e had in months. Cortisone does wonders

 

Another day in Death Valley in the torching sun in Windsor with games at 9:00 and 2:00

 

Sunburns in mid Oct FTL

 

Thankfully, you only share the valley conditions in the summer.

 

Got red yesterday out there in that valley heat all day. Same today even warmer with no backdoor. I'm not Portugese

 

The heat doesn't give you the burn, it's the UV of the sun.

If you want to get technical, the higher up you are the worse your burn should be. lol

 

He should be blistering up there on the top of Mount Tolland.  There's a reason why some of the worst possible sunburns come from mountain summits.  Ever seen someone's face after skiing in Colorado in March without sunscreen?  Lips swollen shut, blistering cheeks, etc.

this is one of those deals where it seems like the atmosphere is cheating...

 

You look at the 500mb charts and we are amid this fairly strong ridging, yet the lower troposphere winds still pump and pump and pump into the ridge ?

 

that's unusual.   Looking at the high res vis satellite loops also shows how uniquely New England gets seriously screwed when you have a stubborn high parked NE of Maine like that.  That high could be in England ...and it would still lob reasons to pump an onshore flow all the way across the ocean.  Jesus!

 

The "boringness" of the pattern could be alleviated a good deal if we could have some 70+F pleasant afternoons ... more in line with these sort of ridge signals, but this plaguing undercut, gray abysmal bullshyst really does ruin a weekend.   

 

BUT, that is why the NFL was invented.  word!

Maybe at solar noon if you're very fair skinned. My highest UV index I've recorded in Feb since moving here in 2006 is 3.7.

Yeah it's a challenge to get burnt that time of year but humans are at their fairest following winter so maybe...certainly the October sun shouldn't do anything to you if you are even semi-regularly outside through your the summer.
