The Sun's rays are capable of causing sunburn, and constant long-term exposure can lead to an increase in skin cancers. That said, sunlight is only "deadly" to vampires.
From about 11 AM to 3 PM (daylight savings time) is when sunlight is most direct, and when the atmosphere provides less protection. During morning and evening hours, the Sun's rays are filtered somewhat by atmospheric scattering and attenuation.
The sun's rays warmed the beach on a hot summer day.
UV rays are most harmful between the hours of 10am and 4pm, when the sun is at its strongest. During these peak hours, it is important to seek shade, wear protective clothing, and use sunscreen to reduce your risk of skin damage.
Sun rays are strongest near the equator, where sunlight is more direct due to the Earth's curvature. Additionally, higher altitudes tend to have stronger sun rays due to the thinner atmosphere that filters less sunlight.
At either of the tropics the sun's rays are most directly overhead at mid-day in mid summer.
When the Sun is DIRECTLY overhead its Rays are the strongest. This is because they are traveling through the shortest amount of the Atmosphere to reach you.
Ultraviolet (UV) sun rays, specifically UVB rays, are responsible for burning the skin and causing sunburn. When the skin is exposed to excessive UVB rays, it can lead to inflammation, redness, and blistering. It is important to protect the skin from these rays by using sunscreen and seeking shade during peak sun hours.
During the summer, the rays of the sun are more direct and intense due to the Earth's tilt. This results in warmer temperatures and longer daylight hours. Sunscreen and protective clothing are important to prevent sunburn and skin damage.
The sun shines its powerful, hot rays onto the ground. The light rays travel in light years, which is why we constantly feel the sun during the day. The only reason why we aren't burned by the rays of light is because the sun is so far away. Hope this helps!
The amount of ultraviolet (UV) rays at 8pm is typically low or close to non-existent as the sun is setting or has already set. The UV index is highest during the middle of the day when the sun is at its peak. UV levels decrease in the evening and night hours.

No, during summer in the Northern Hemisphere, the sun's rays are more direct because the Earth is tilted towards the sun. This results in longer daylight hours and higher sun angles, leading to warmer temperatures.
