no.Distance of the sun to earh it doesnt effect in anyway the earth.
in the northern hemisphere the sun is closest to earth in the dead of winter

No. As it happens the Earth is closest to the sun when it is winter in the northern hemisphere. Seasons like summer and winter are related to the tilt of the earth with respect to the plane of its orbit about the sun, not to the distance from the sun.
When Earth is closest to the sun the northern hemisphere is in winter Given the effects of precession will this still be the case in 13000 years?
no, it is winter in either the northern hemisphere or the southern hemisphere.it all depends on the tilt of the earth to the sun.
No, the Northern Hemisphere experiences winter when it is tilted away from the sun, which is during the period when Earth is closest to the sun in its elliptical orbit. The distance from the sun does not significantly affect the seasons on Earth.
When Earth is closest to the sun the Southern Hemisphere receives more of the sun's rays, making it hotter, or summer there, and winteri nthe north.

The Earth is closest to the sun in early January, but the tilt of Earth's axis is the primary reason for seasons. When the northern hemisphere is tilted away from the sun, it receives less direct sunlight, leading to winter.
