The sun is always in the sky above earth. Sometimes you may not see it because of cloud, fog , and/or mist. At night time we cannot see it because it is on the other side of earth.

The sun transits the southern sky only during some parts of the year. Other times, it moves across the sky from east to west.
Why is the sun not always in the sky?

Does the Sun move in the sky from north to south each day?
The Sun does move from North to South in the sky (or the other way) just a little bit each day. This is caused by the tilt of the Earth's axis combined with the Earth's orbital motion around the Sun each day. So, in the winter the Sun is lower in the sky than in the summer. In the Northern Hemisphere that means the Sun is further South in the sky.
