Tracking slightly lower index levels for Boone County as a round of storms will move in during peak sun conditions mid-afternoon. Still, the sun will be out entering the later afternoon hours, bringing a UV index of 6. Without protection of sunscreen that's SPF 50 or higher, it'll take 20-25 minutes to receive a sunburn to bare skin.

I'm tracking medium allergens throughout he week as rain helps somewhat to dull down the spread of pollens.
