The answer will depend on the date, and on the observer's latitude.
In the North Pole, winter occurs from late September to late March. In the South Pole, winter takes place from late March to late September. Both poles experience continuous darkness during winter due to their axial tilt away from the sun.
The tilt of the axis is such that the North pole is further away from the sun in December and that is why we have winter time in the northern hemisphere. this means that at the same time the south pole is closer to the sun and summer time occurs there in December.
The time it gets dark in North Carolina varies depending on the time of year and your specific location within the state. Generally, in the summer months, it can get dark around 8-9pm, while in the winter it can get dark as early as 5-6pm.
The North Pole experiences a phenomenon known as the "midnight sun" during summer months, where the sun remains visible for 24 hours due to the tilt of the Earth's axis. This means there is effectively only one sunset at the North Pole during this time.
Sunrise at the South Pole is on about the 21st of September every year. Sunset is on about the 22nd of March the following year. The reverse is the case at the North Pole. So a polar day is about 6 months and a polar night is also about 6 months.
Winter
The North Pole and South Pole (Antarctica) are two places on Earth where it can be dark for over 24 hours. During the respective winter-times of the North Pole and Antarctica, these areas can go with little to no sunlight for months at a time. Additionally, enclosed spaces such as caves may not receive any sunlight for extended periods of time.
Yes. At the time of this writing (January), that would be places near the North pole, when it is winter in the north.Yes. At the time of this writing (January), that would be places near the North pole, when it is winter in the north.Yes. At the time of this writing (January), that would be places near the North pole, when it is winter in the north.Yes. At the time of this writing (January), that would be places near the North pole, when it is winter in the north.
Basically, you can get sick everywhere at any time.
In the North Pole, winter occurs from late September to late March. In the South Pole, winter takes place from late March to late September. Both poles experience continuous darkness during winter due to their axial tilt away from the sun.
At the north pole and south pole, the sun is up for six months and down for six months.
Winter. The Earth has an axis, tilted at about 23.5° from the perpendicular to Earth's orbit. When the Earth's north pole is tilted towards the Sun, the northern hemisphere is in summer while the southern hemisphere is in winter. That's the main time when the Sun doesn't set at the north pole. When the Earth's north pole is tilted away from the Sun the southern hemisphere is in summer while the northern hemisphere is in winter.
The tilt of the axis is such that the North pole is further away from the sun in December and that is why we have winter time in the northern hemisphere. this means that at the same time the south pole is closer to the sun and summer time occurs there in December.
When the North Pole points away from the sun, it is winter in the Northern Hemisphere. This is because during that time, the Northern Hemisphere is tilted away from the sun, resulting in shorter days and cooler temperatures.
The time it gets dark in North Carolina varies depending on the time of year and your specific location within the state. Generally, in the summer months, it can get dark around 8-9pm, while in the winter it can get dark as early as 5-6pm.
During the winter solstice the Sun's rays are tangent to the Arctic and Antarctic Circles. At this time the North Pole is facing away from the Sun, while the South Pole is facing into the Sun.
No, it doesn't. I don't know whether you live in the northern hemisphere or southern hemisphere, but if you live in the northern hemisphere, the further north you go, the colder it'll get, but it'll get dark later and light earlier in the summer, and dark earlier and light later in the winter. In the North Pole and South Pole, Antarctica and the Arctic, it doesn't get dark in the summer and doesn't get light in the winter. If you live in the Southern Hemisphere, the further South you go, the colder it'll get, but it'll get dark later and light earlier in the summer, and dark earlier and light later in the winter. The reason the North Pole and South Pole are so cold, is because the sun is like a torch shining on a tennis ball, and in the middle will be warmest, and top and bottom will be coldest. If you live in the Equator, it'll be very warm, but it'll get dark at the same time all year round, so I wouldn't like to live in the Equator because the times it gets dark and light would be same all the time, I would find it a bit repetitive and boring. I don't know why Antarctica is colder than the Arctic.
