Why is it summer in the northern hemisphere when it's winter in the southern hemisphere?

This is due to the tilt of Earth's axis. When the northern hemisphere is tilted towards the sun, it receives more direct sunlight, resulting in summer. At the same time, the southern hemisphere is tilted away from the sun, receiving less direct sunlight and experiencing winter.


When does the northern hemisphere have summer?

June, July and August. When the Northern Hemisphere is tilted towards the sun and when the Southern Hemisphere is tilted away from the sun.


What hemisphere is tilted toward the sun during the summer solstice?

The hemisphere tilted towards the Sun during the summer solstice is the Northern Hemisphere. This tilt causes the North Pole to be tilted towards the Sun, leading to longer days and warmer temperatures in the Northern Hemisphere during this time of the year.


Why is it summer in earths northern hemisphere at the same time its winter in the southern hemisphere?

This happens because of the tilt of Earth's axis. During the summer in the Northern Hemisphere, that part of the Earth is tilted towards the Sun, receiving more direct sunlight and causing warmer temperatures. At the same time, the Southern Hemisphere is tilted away from the Sun, experiencing winter with fewer daylight hours and cooler temperatures.


What season is it when the earths northern hemisphere is tilted towards the sun?

If the northern axis or North Pole is tilted directly towards the sun, it is summer in the northern hemisphere and winter in the southern hemisphere. If your talking about the angle of the planet when the Northern Hemisphere is receiving direct rays, its summer. If you are asking what the Northern Hemisphere season it is when planet Earth is closest to the Sun, it's winter.

Is the winter solstice tilted toward the sun?

At both the winter and summer solstices, the Earth is tilted towards the sun. What differs is which hemisphere is tilted towards the sun. In the northern hemisphere at its winter solstice, the southern hemisphere is tilted towards the sun, while the northern hemisphere it tilted away from the sun. In the southern hemisphere at its winter solstice, the northern hemisphere is tilted towards the sun, while the southern hemisphere it tilted towards the sun. When it is the winter solstice in one hemisphere, it is the summer solstice is in the other hemisphere. For a winter solstice, that particular hemisphere is tilted away from the sun.


When the Antarctic Circle experiences 24 hours of darkness what hemisphere experiences summer?
