What happens to the length of daylight as you go from winter to summer?

The length of daylight increases as you transition from winter to summer. This change occurs because the Earth's tilt causes the northern hemisphere to be more directly exposed to sunlight during the summer months, resulting in longer days.

Is there an the example of explanation text?

Why Summer Daylight Is Longer Than Winter Daylight In the summer, the amount of daylight that we get is more than we get in winter. This is not because as much people think we are closer to the sun but because of the tilt of the earth. The earth is actually closer to the sun in winter than it is in summer but you would be forgiven for thinking that this can not be true after looking out of your window on a cold and frosty morning. It seems strange that as the earth get closer to the sun during its orbit then the amount of daylight that we get decrease. But that is the case. It is the tilt of the earth that determine the amount of daylight that we get and so the length of time that for us the sun is above the horizon.


Why do you get more hours of daylight in summer?

The axis of the planet tilts causing the sun to be farther North during the summer, if you look at the sun rise now it is much farther south than it will be in the summer.
