Sunburn on March 24!?
Reached +80 F yesterday here. Sunburn on my arms and face out riding. This has got to be the earliest I have ever burnt in Chicagoland. I do not recall solar radiation being intense enough around here even at the end of April, regardless of temperature, to start tanning. What happened to the ozone layer?

Back when I was still in Jr High 44 years ago, I spent my Spring Break that year doing bodywork on my parent's truck. I got a better burn/tan than some of the kids that went to Bermuda or Florida - and I did it in Cleveland! So no -- it is NOT something new!
