The sun is generally positioned in the southeast during the early morning hours, roughly around sunrise. The exact time can vary based on geographic location and the time of year, but it typically rises between 5:00 AM and 7:00 AM in many regions. As the day progresses, the sun moves higher in the sky and shifts toward the south.

Does the sun rise west or south?

To your right. That is correct, but how did you reason that out? Think of the compass. If you stand facing north, then east would be on your right and west would be on your left and you would be facing away from south. So, turn east toward the rising sun, now south is on your right, north is to your left and you are facing away from west. Same works for the setting sun (in the west). Face the setting sun, now north is on your right. Sounds complicated. The way I remember it is to put my right hand toward the rising sun. That way I am facing north--every time. Check it out with a compass.

Why the temperatures are lowest in December?

It depends where you are. I would assume you are somwhere in the northern hemisphere since December through March is winter here. It is coldest in December here because the North Pole is facing away from the sun, not because of how far away we are from the sun. Since the top pole is facing away from the Sun at a 23.5 degree tilt than that means the South Pole is facing towards the sun at this time, thus experiencing warm temperatures.


What planet has most eccentric orbit and tipped at the greatest angle?

That would be Uranus, it is almost laying on its side, as it faces the Sun. Earth faces the sun standing almost straight up, with the north and south poles at the top and bottom. Uranus, however, has its south pole facing the Sun. Also, the planet rotates, or spins, from east to west which is the exact opposite of the way that Earth spins.
