There are factors that influence the weather on the earth. One of these is the tilt of the earth. The earth's axis of rotation is tilted about 23.5 degrees compared to the plane of the earth's orbit around the sun. The earth's tilt is responsible for the seasons we experience.

How Does the tilt of earths axis affect the number of daylight hours and the temperature of a location on earths?

If the Earth's axis was vertical - every point on its surface would have the same length of day and night, no matter what time of year it was. The tilt of the axis (to about 11 degrees) means that, as the Earth rotates, and travels around the sun, the length of day shortens and lengthens throughout the year.
