Headed to the slopes? ☃ Pack your eye protection! Solar UV radiation increases with altitude, with an increase of 300m equivalent to a 4% increase in #UV Index. The high reflectivity of snow further increases exposure & the UVR dose to an unprotected eye can be large.

Thanks for he heads up @CanberraPollen - incidentally early August is when we start see UV levels on the rise too in the ACT. 🌳🤧🌞🌻🤠

[Canberra Pollen @CanberraPollen]

First signs that airborne pollen is rising in July with MODERATE levels of Cypress Pine pollen (Cupressacaea) being recorded in Canberra over the last 2 days.

Be aware of what is normal for your skin and if you have any concerns then have a chat with your doctor. #BeAware #SunSmart #Melanoma #Skincancer

Do you work outdoors? Whilst UV levels are low (under 3) at this time of the year in Canberra, outdoors workers should not be complacent! Sun protection is required all year round when working outdoors. @Cancer_ACT

Whilst UV levels are low (under 3) in Canberra for the next few months- it is worth noting that sun protection is actually required ALL YEAR for Canberrans who work outdoors! #BeSunSmart

A great reminder as we go into winter, Canberra outdoors workers need to protect their skin all year round - everyday!
