Sitting in the sun, beyond what other’s have said about skin temperature, causes sunlight to be absorbed by the electrons in your skin and quickly release that energy as heat. Even if it is, say, 20C, your skin can get well above that in direct sunlight. It’s also why a car sitting closed in a 27C day can reach up to 35-40C, which is why it can kill unattended children or animals.
