We are having a nasty one here today folks. Rain, hail ... I got caught in the hail this morning on my way to work. Man that stuff stings!

Anyhoo ... check this out for the weather forecast on our online newspaper:

Auckland Weather
Monday Thunder 15° 8°
Allergy Rating Pollen forecast today is unavailable.
UV Rating 6.4 UV Scale (0-15)
To avoid the damage of sunburn, look for shade and use a hat, clothing, sunglasses and sunscreen once the UV index is over 6.

Okay ... so the UV rating is over 6.4, however if I tried to wear a hat outside today it would get crushed by the hail! Silly silly silly.
