I can vouch for that!!   I once took my son rock climbing in Idyllwilde, CA a 
few years ago--gosh was the sun nasty!  No joke, I actually burnt my fingers 
on the rock--they were red and sore and peeled a week or so later.  As we 
were driving back to San Diego, since his little truck AC was not working we 
had the windows open--it was exactly like someone holding a big hair dryer 
outside the window and blowing the hot air into the truck.
