The clear-sky UV index is the effective UV irradiance (1 unit equals 25
mW/m2) reaching the Earth's surface. The clear-sky UV index is based on the
CIE action spectrum for the susceptibility of the caucasian skin to sunburn
(erythema) and it is valid for cloud-free conditions at local solar noon.
Forecasts are provided for today and the next few days.
