Summertime is here and many people enjoy being outdoors, enjoying the warmth of the sun and participating in summer activities. For some, however, the sun and its associated heat can be dangerous. Heart patients in particular can experience negative effects from prolonged exposure to sunlight and heat.
People who suffer from abnormal blood pressure, congestive heart failure, vascular problems and other circulatory issues are at higher risk of developing heat exhaustion or heat stroke when in hot conditions for prolonged periods of time. Certain medications, such as calcium channel blockers, beta blockers, diuretics and ace inhibitors can affect the normal response mechanisms of the body to becoming overheated.
Winter is from the Winter Solstice, December 21st, to the Spring Equinox, March 20th.
Winter Solstice

the winter solstice is when two days of the year, when the noon sun is farthest or south equator WINTER SOLSTICE OCCURS ON DECEMBER 21
The winter solstice, which usually occurs around December 21.
Winter is from the Winter Solstice, December 21st, to the Spring Equinox, March 20th.
The winter solstice doesn't affect the seasons. The Earth is tilted, and as it travels around the sun, different parts of it get more or less tilted towards us, which causes the seasons. A solstice is just a point that is reached twice a year, where the Earth's tilt to and from the sun is at its maximum, usually on the 21st of June and the 21st of December. When it is the winter solstice in the northern hemisphere, it is the summer solstice in the southern hemisphere and it is the same the other way around. A winter solstice marks the point for that hemisphere when it is at its maximum tilt away from the sun and when the days stop getting shorter and start to get longer. It will still be winter there for a bit longer, but spring will soon follow.

No, the winter solstice marks the beginning of winter.
It is when the day is the shortest in the year. It really shouldn't affect temperature(except it might be cold be cause it is winter!)
The Winter Solstice is actually the shortest day of the year.

That depends on whether you are in the Northern or Southern Hemisphere. If you are in the Northern, then your winter solstice is the summer solstice in the Southern Hemisphere. If you are in the Southern, then your winter solstice is the summer solstice for everyone in the Northern Hemisphere.
The December solstice, which is the winter solstice in the northern hemisphere marks the beginning of northern winter.
