Because of the tilt of the earth, the sun's rays are most direct in the northern hemisphere during their winter months and the Southern Hemisphere during their winter months.
The sun shine is most prevalent at the equator
During the winter solstice in the northern hemisphere the 23 parallel in the southern hemisphere is receiving the most direct sunlight.
if you dont know tell someone who knows ............ ************************************************ When northern hemisphere tilts towards the sun, it is summer in the northern hemisphere, and winter in the southern hemisphere. The seasons reverse when the northern hemisphere tilts away from the sun. The angle that the sun's rays strike the earth's surface, decides the seasons.
At that moment and at that location somewhere along the Tropic of Capricorn, it is solar noon. It also happens to be the moment of the summer solstice in the southern hemisphere, and the winter solstice in the north.
The northern hemisphere has much more land than the southern hemisphere.
When it's winter in the southern hemisphere it's summer in the northern hemisphere. Therefore the North geographic pole is tilted towards the sun and the South geographic pole is tilted away from the sun.
When the North Pole tilts away from the sun, the most direct rays strike the Southern Hemisphere, closer to the Tropic of Capricorn. This results in winter in the Northern Hemisphere and summer in the Southern Hemisphere.
During the daytime.
Summer
The Northern Hemisphere receives the most direct sunlight in June, during the summer solstice. This is when the North Pole is tilted closest to the sun, resulting in longer days and more direct sunlight in the Northern Hemisphere.
During the winter solstice in the northern hemisphere the 23 parallel in the southern hemisphere is receiving the most direct sunlight.
well if you say it that way, it depend which hemisphere you live in. We live in the northern hemisphere, so the sun rays strike to the southern hemisphere.

June 20-21 is a very important day for our planet and its relationship with the sun. June 20-21 is one of two solstices, days when the rays of the sun directly strike one of the two tropical latitude lines. June 21 marks the beginning of summer in the northern hemisphere and simultaneously heralds the beginning of winter in the southern hemisphere. In 2012, the summer solstice occurs and summer begins in the Northern Hemisphere on June 20, at 7:09 p.m
northern
During the summer in the Northern Hemisphere, areas near the Tropic of Cancer receive the most direct sunlight due to the tilt of the Earth's axis. This results in longer daylight hours and more intense sunlight in these regions.
The Northern Hemisphere has more land area than the Southern Hemisphere. About 68% of the Earth's land area is located in the Northern Hemisphere.
