Where is the southern hemisphere in relation to the sun when it is summer in the northern hemisphere?
In summer, the N. Hemisphere is oriented toward the Sun, while the S. Hemisphere is oriented away. In the winter, the opposite is true. The Earth is actually closer to the Sun in the N. Hemisphere Winter than in the Summer.
In the southern hemisphere the sun rises in the..?
The sun rises from the same direction as in the Northern Hemisphere, the east.
In the southern hemisphere where the sun rises?
The sun rises from the same direction as in the Northern Hemisphere, the east.

What events signals the beginning of the summer in the northern hemisphere?
The Summer Solstice in the northern hemisphere, where the sun is highest declination.
Does the location of the sunset point correlate with how high the sun is in the sky at noon?
Yes, to an extent. In the northern hemisphere summer, the Sun rises somewhat north of east, and the Sun will be higher in the sky at noon. (In the southern hemisphere summers, the Sun rises SOUTH of east and is higher at noon.)In the winter, the sun rises south of east (north of east for the southern hemisphere) and is lower in the sky at noon.
Which hemisphere is tilted toward the sun when it is winter in the northern hemisphere?
The Northern Hemisphere will be in summer, and the Southern Hemisphere will be in winter.
When the northern hemisphere points toward the sun what season is it?
it is summer in the northern hemisphere and winter in the Southern Hemisphere.
What is the season in the northern hemisphere?
Thus, we experience Summer in the northern hemisphere when the Earth is on that part of its orbit where the N. Hemisphere is oriented more toward the Sun and therefore the Sun rises higher in the sky and is above the horizon longer, and the rays of the Sun strike the ground more directly. Likewise, in the N. Hemisphere Winter the hemisphere is oriented away from the Sun, the Sun only rises low in the sky, is above the horizon for a shorter period, and the rays of the Sun strike the ground more obliquely. It is now (fifth May) the season of Spring.
In which position would it be summer in the northern hemisphere?
Summer
Does the sunrise and sunset positions change?
