UV index

Your forecaster displays the current UV index. The UV index provides 
a daily forecast of the expected risk of overexposure to the sun. The 
index predicts UV intensity levels on a scale of 1 to 11+, where 1 in-
dicates a low risk of overexposure and 11+ signifies an extreme risk. 
The UV index takes into account cloud cover and other local condi-
tions that affect the amount of UV radiation reaching the ground.
