The extreme tilt would make the seasons more extreme. Large areas of the

planet would have sunlight for many Earth years in the "summer". In the "winter" the same places would have no sunlight at all.

However the strength of the Sun is not great at the distance of Uranus, so even the summer would be very cold.

Incidentally, the Sun would be much higher in the sky at the poles in "summer"

than is the case on Earth. So the polar regions would be warmer than the

equator where the Sun would be very low in the sky.
