Get outside and get some SUN – It’s good for your melon!

When I think of Pittsburgh weather, my mind instantly goes to an old WDVE skit.  In a classic Joe DeNardo voice, either Paulsen or Krenn would give the following weather forecast for the day:

Today, we can expect a ‘Partly Clawdy’ day.  Look for an morning ‘Shaaower’ with some afternoon sunshine

We laughed at the time without realizing the truth of it.  That truth is that Pittsburgh ranks among one of the Least Sunniest Cities in the America.

So, when the sun shines in our city, we appreciate it!

Oddly enough, there is some real science behind our eagerness to see the sun.  The following article points out all of the positive benefits to the sun.  These benefits can include:

  • Decreasing Depression
  • Building of Strong Bones
  • Healing of Skin Conditions
  • Lowering the risks for types of cancer

The sun may be the best medicine that God has given us!!  

Enjoy
