No, they're more direct in summer. That's why they heat more.

Which region always receives the suns most direct rays?
The equator receives direct rays from sun. It is present in front of sun.
What is mostly affected by the suns ultraviolet rays?
The ozone layer is mostly affected the by the suns ultraviolet rays. This layer is present in the stratospheric region of atmosphere.
Does the atmosphere protect us from suns harmful rays?
If a "particle" (either a photon or an actual particle) strikes a molecule of air it will either be absorbed or will result in particles of less energy.
How are the colors of leaves affected by the weather condition?
in the winter it gets to cold and leaves live in mild temperatures in the summer if they don't change the colors to red the suns rays will burn them
What occurs when the suns most direct rays hit the equator and the day equal experiences equal amounts of light and dark?
I would try going to NASA.com and looking up that answer
Where are the Suns rays least direct on the earth?
At the poles
What causes winter in the Northren Hemisphere?
the north pole is tilted away from the sun so the suns rays are less direct
Which region always receives the suns most direct rays?
The equator receives direct rays from sun. It is present in front of sun.
When do the suns most direct rays strike in the western hemisphere?
During the daytime.
Where are the suns rays most direct during the equinox?
A+ at the equator-inator DOOF
Is the northernmost point that receives the suns most direct rays?
tropic of cancer
During which season do the suns rays hit the tropic of Capricorn?
summer solstice
Why do areas farthest from the equator have the coldest climates?
The further south or north from the equator, the shallower the angle of the sun's rays hitting the earth's surface. This means that the rays travel through the atmosphere further and so have time to cool. The sun's rays hit the equator dead on, concentrated, but they hit the North and South pole at an angle, so the heat is spread out over a larger area.
Does ice reflect suns rays in Antarctica?
It does indeed reflect the suns rays.
How does it change seasons?
This a response to the amount of time that the sun has to warm the earth in different seasons, and how direct the suns rays are on the earth at that location. In temperate zones the sun shines about 14 or more hours in the summer (daytime) heating the earth more than the other seasons and the rays are almost from directly overhead. Spring and fall have fewer close to equinox 12 hr day/ 12 hrs night so there is less heating. Winter the suns rays are more 'slanted' and there is only about 10 hours of daytime so much less heating.
How much of the suns rays get absorbed into our atmosphere?
About 17% of the suns rays get absorbed into our atmosphere
The hemisphere that leans toward the sun has warmer temperatures because the suns rays are?
more direct and the daylight period is longer :))
