Skin weather in El Paso
In El Paso, summer UV reaches the top of the scale by late morning and the humidity keeps sweat on the skin. Lighter moisturizers, a broad-spectrum sunscreen reapplied at midday, and a gel cleanser in the evening suit most people from May to September.
How the index works
MET Norway gives a clear-sky UV index for each hour; cloud takes up to 70% of it away, so the number here is for the sky you have. The WHO categories: low 0–2, moderate 3–5 (sunscreen for time outside), high 6–7 (sunscreen on every uncovered part, reapply), very high 8–10 and extreme 11+ (shade and cover between 10 and 4). Dry air under 30% humidity and cold wind are the other two things the day does to skin.
