Because the angle of the sun is still shallow in their sky. When it's winter in the area you live, it's cold because the sun does not pass over your area high in the sky. This means you're getting less direct sunlight, which makes it colder.

Why is Earth's surface warmer in the north hemisphere it is summer there?
The earth surface is warmer in the northern hemisphere when it issummer there because of the angle of the sun. For the same reason,the Earth's surface is warmer in the southern hemisphere when it isSummer there.
When the sun rays reach their highest angle in the northern hemisphere the season there in is?
That would be summer. In summer, the northern axis of the earth is tilted toward the sun. The angle of the sun from the horizon is greater than in the winter. This is one reason summer is warmer and days are longer.
Which position on earth represents the first day of summer in the northern hemisphere?
every time earth turns around the more it gets more colder and warmer
Can you get a cold in the summer?
Even though the name is cold, it is caused by a virus that can be caught even during the warmer times of year.
Why does the Northern hemisphere experience warmer temperatures in summer than the winter?
Short answer. Whether you are in the northern hemisphere OR in the southern hemisphere it is always warmer in the summer than it is in the winter!What makes it warmer, and summer time? The tilt of the earth creates the seasons as the planet moves around the sun, always tilted to one side. If the earth didn't tilt, no countries would experience their annual variations between summer and winter time. THE ANGLE of the sun to the earth's surface affects the temperature.* When the sun is more directly overhead, i.e. in summer time, and not coming from the side, the sun's heat is more concentrated on the earth's surface in those areas, making them really warm.* But the other parts of the earth, in the other hemisphere, where the sun's rays come from a lower angle, from a spot nearer the horizon, don't get as hot because the heat from the sun's rays, coming at an angle, is spread over a bigger patch of the earth's surface.

Why is it warmer in the summer in the northern hemisphere?
Because during that season, the northern Hemisphere is closer to the sun. This is caused by the earth's axis tilt.
Why are the waters at the equator warmer than waters at higher latitudes?
Because the waters are heated throughout the whole year and not just in the summer as at higher latitudes.
Why are waters at the equator warmer than waters at higher latitudes?
Because the waters are heated throughout the whole year and not just in the summer as at higher latitudes.
Why do latitudes closer to the equator have warmer climates?
Latitudes closer to the Equator have warmer climates because they receive direct sunlight and therefore, the latitudes get evidently heated. :)
Why is earth's surface warmer in the northern hemisphere when it is summer there?
Cause the sun is facing there
On a map of average annual temperature why are the lower latitudes so much warmer than the higher latitudes?
On a map of average annual temperature why are the lower latitudes so much warmer than the higher latitudes?
Why is summer warmer than other seasons?
During summer, the sun is closer to Earth.
In northern latitudes what are swallow famous for doing in autumn?
Swallows fly south in autumn also known as migrating.
Is it warmer in July than January in the northern hemisphere?
Yes. In January the northern hemisphere is still in winter, while in July the northern hemisphere is in the middle of summer.
Why is Northern and Western Europe's climate unusual for a region located in a latitude that is so far North?
It is warmer than equivalent latitudes. This is due to the Gulf Stream which brings warmer waters from the Gulf of Mexico towards western Europe.
What would happen if the earth was tilted 100 degrees?
If the Earth was tilted at 100 degrees (instead of 23), there would be drastically different variations of climate. It would be much warmer at high latitudes in the summer, and much cooler at low latitudes in the winter.
When do children grow fastest?
