On the spring of fall equinox, the sun rises directly in the east, and sets directly in the west, and the day is the same length as night. Between the spring and fall equinox, the sun is out for the majority of the day, and out the longest on the summer solstice. In reverse, the sun is out the least between the fall and spring equinox, and the least amount of daylight is on the winter solstice.
