Burning in Britain (Science question)

Recommended Posts

Quote

Does ANYONE have any idea why they burn in Scotland, but simply tan in Az? Surely it should be the other way around, shouldn't it?



This is quite simply due to the far superior weather we have in Scotland! :P Whilst lounging around in the gorgeous sunshine and 15-25kt winds last weekend at Strath, it became clear that because of the lovely cooling breeze, people didn't feel the intensity of the sun. B| This was made abundantly clear when the sun went down (at about 10pm), and we could still see by the light of people's faces! :$

And as for God and Scotland...well, he had the last laugh, when he gave us the English as neighbours...;)

Ah yes, the Scots, who keep the Sabbath and anything else they can lay their hands on.:P

The only sure way to survive a canopy collision is not to have one.
