Avalanche-Journal reports sun exposure increases skin cancer risk with 10 000 expected new cases this year and potential for serious damage from overexposure. It notes peak burning hours 10 am to 2 pm, sun reflection off sand and water, melanin role, and that protective clothing helps though overexposure ages skin and can trigger infections. It also warns medicines like antibiotics and tranquilizers heighten sun sensitivity and cites weather service rough estimates of statewide sunshine.
