Much like Alaska, Canada is call the Land of Contrast because of the stark black and while mono tone colors of winter, with it's black and white blanket in winter, however, with the summer and autumn, lush greens and blues and fall colors of reds and yellows, make it a stark contrast from one season to another.
They call it summer because like every continent on the world it has every season. Just because it is frightfully cold does not mean it does not have a summer season. Summer does not always have to mean hot weather and sunny days! For instance take the lower half of the equator while it is summer here and nice and warm it is winter down there and not as warm.
September, October, and November are the three months that make up the fall in Calfornia.
The contrast is greater in the Winter. The equatorial temperature is relatively stable throughout the year ... always what I call 'hot'. Temperatures in the Arctic region ... for example on Alaska's North Slope where this writer has personal experience ... can remain below zero for long stretches during the Winter, but are equally likely to remain "shirt-sleeve" during the Summer, often even hitting the 80s and 90s.
The 'perihelion' is the point during the orbit of Earth when our planet is closest to the sun. The date of the perihelion was January 3rd. The point when Earth is farthest from the sun is called the 'aphelion.' It will occur on July 7th. It does not matter if you are in the Northern Hemisphere or the Southern Hemisphere. The changing of the seasons is due to the tilt of the Earth's axis, not its varying proximity to the sun. The dates of the perihelion and the aphelion actually change over long periods of time. Our twelve month calendar, the time it takes to go completely around the sun, is called a 'tropical' year. The time it takes to go from one perihelion to the next is called an 'anomalistic' year, and an anomalistic year is about 25 minutes longer than the tropical year. This means that the date of the perihelion changes by one day every 58 years, and 'regresses' entirely through a tropical in approximately 21,000 years. It is thought by many scientists that such a change might have a long term effect on the Earth's climate.
Yes they do!
well actually no i wouldn't call it a season but saturn does show some cloud activity in the outer atmosphere
Summer
Norway has 4 seasons. We call them spring (feb-may), summer(june-aug), autumn (sept - nov) and winter (des-jan).
Before summer. When in doubt, think of the James Taylor song, "You've Got a Friend": "Winter, spring, summer or fall, All you've got to do is call, And I'll be there, yes I will, "Cause you've got a friend...."
Because France is in the Northern Hemisphere and Australia is in the Southern Hemisphere, they will always have opposite seasons at any given time. For example, it's always summer in France when it's winter in Australia, and vice versa.
Depending on what season it is you could call it "Summer fun" or Winter Wonder Land" You could also use lyrics from your favorite song.
There is no name for a horses summer coat except for SUMMER COAT. Though we often call them "sleek" or "shiney" during the summer. The same this holds true for a winter coat-its called just that, a winter coat. Though we often call them "fuzzballs" and "Furbags". :)
The black bear hybernates during the winter season.
This translates loosly to what we call summer.
In the tropics, between the Tropic of Cancer and the Tropic of Capricorn. However, even in these areas they have distinct seasons. It's just that they don't have "winter" and "summer", they have a rainy season and a dry season. In southeast Asia and in India, they call their rainy season the "Monsoon".
summer, when it is tilted away from the sun it is winter.
