July has the longest hours of sunlight because in July it has the longest day
AnswerThe above is OK for someone in the northern hemisphere, but for the majority of those in the Southern Hemisphere, January is the month with most sunshine. In many tropical areas, the wet season means that cloud cover reduces the sunlight hours and so the most sun would be in the dry season. This may be the opposite of the other areas in the same hemisphere. An example is in Australia, where most of the southern parts of the country have highest sunlight in mid-summer or January, but the tropical city of Darwin in the north has it's sunniest month in July - even though still in the southern hemisphere.The right answer is:
Dec 21st for the South Pole and southern Hemisphere and June 21st for the North Pole and Northern Hemisphere

How do you draw the Arctic Circle?
The Arctic Circle is an imaginary line on globes and charts at about 66.5°N latitude. Locations north of the Arctic Circle can experience at least one 24-hour period of "night" during the winter. At the North Pole, this becomes 6 months of daylight and 6 months of night. To "draw" the Arctic Circle, make a circle centered on the North Pole, about 2600 kilometers (1616 miles) in radius.
How many hours of darkness are there in one day north of the Arctic Circle or south of the Antarctic Circle?
North of the Arctic Circle and south of the Antarctic one, the periods of daylight and darkness both vary from zero to six months, during the course of a year.

How many months does the sun not set in the Arctic Circle?

How many hours of daylight are there in Canada during the fall months?

How many hours of darkness are there in one day?
It depends on where you are and what season it is. If you are at the equator then there is 12 hours of daylight and 12 hours of night. If you are above the arctic circle then during the winter there is 24 hours of darkness each day, this will occur on Dec. 21st. If you are further above the arctic circle the darkness can last for months. During the summer there will be 24 hours of daylight on June 21st, and again this can last for months if you are very far north. The same is true for the South pole as well.
Why does the Arctic Circle have 24 hours of daylight?
because the earth is tilted at 23.5 degrees so the arctic is pointed directly towards the sun. But it is only for 6 months and then there is only darkness
What time is sunup and sundown time in barrow Alaska today?
In Barrow, Alaska today, the sun rises at approximately 1:31 AM and sets at around 1:35 AM due to being located above the Arctic Circle. This results in a period of continuous daylight during the summer months.
Which is the place in the Arctic and in the Antarctic that has 24 hours of daylight?
You can experience this phenomenon beyond the respective circles -- 66.5 degrees of latitude. Depending on how far you are beyond the circles, the period of no sunset may be days, weeks or months.
Which country has 6 month night?
The country that experiences a period of six months of continuous darkness during winter is Antarctica. This phenomenon occurs at the South Pole due to its location within the Antarctic Circle, where the sun remains below the horizon for an extended period of time.
How many days does the land of midnight sun last for?
