The UV Index is on a scale between 0-10(10 being the most harmful). With a UV index of +10 you need to use a really strong sun screen to block any harmful UV's that will come through. Constant exposier to +10 UV Index can cause permanent skin damage and worse case skin cancer. So get out your SPF 35 for that one and be safe in the sun.
