When is the last day of winter 2012?

Depending on where you live, the last full day of winter, 2012 will be either March 19, March 20, September 22 or September 23. Winter ends at the moment of the earth's orbit when the hemisphere that you are in goes from being tilted away from the sun to being tilted toward the sun. The sun will be directly of the equator at 5:14 AM UTC on March 20. Until that time, the sun will be over the southern hemisphere, and after that time it will be over the northern hemisphere. The sun will be directly over the equator again at 2:29 PM UTC on September 22, after which it will again be over the southern hemisphere.

Season when the northern hemisphere is tilted towards the sun?

When the southern hemisphere is tilted towards the sun, it is summer below the equator and winter above. Likewise, when the northern hemisphere is tilted towards the sun, it is summer in the north and winter in the south. Hope that helps. Martyn.


When the North Pole is tilted toward the Sun in the summer why is its temperatures still very cold?

Even though the North Pole is tilted toward the sun, it is not tilted all the way (to 90 degrees). The sun still remains low in the sky, and so the pole doesn't experience the full heat of the sun directly overhead. The tilt of the pole is about 23.5 degrees. It is also very cold because the sun doesn't hit the North Pole directly so it is very cold.


What season is it when the earth is tilted sideways to the sun in the northern and southern hemispheres?

The hemisphere tilted toward the Sun experiences longer days (late spring, summer, early fall). The hemisphere tilted away from the Sun experiences shorter days (late fall, winter, early spring). At the equinoxes, around September 23 and March 20, both hemispheres experience about the same amount of daylight.
