Even when the sun is shining in winter, the angle of sunlight is much lower, resulting in less solar energy reaching the Earth's surface. Additionally, cold air masses dominate during winter months, and the ground and atmosphere can retain low temperatures despite sunny conditions. Factors such as snow cover can also reflect sunlight, preventing effective warming. As a result, the combination of these factors maintains the cold temperatures typical of winter.
