Good question. The answer is that a lot of humidity in the atmosphere tends to block the harmful ultraviolet rays. (It's about the only thing good I can say about humidity.)

Then how can you account for the harmful sunrays in places like Hawaii, The Carribean, Florida, ect??? This is extremely dangerous thought, I'd like to hear your sources. I know of no dermatologist (or scientist) who'd go out and tell their paitents to leave the sunblock at home "because it's humid, so no worry."

Rubbish.
