When I was younger, I spent an August day outside (not in the tropics, but in central Minnesota) wearing an ordinary white cotton T-shirt. I got 2nd degree burns over my entire shoulder area that required a doctors visit. I still have some scarring from that. Now when prairie-walking I generally wear a wide brim hat, and T-shirt with a loose shirt on over it.
