The sun rises in the east at the equinoxes, around March 21 and September 23. During the summer solstice, around June 21, it rises more toward the northeast, while in winter, around December 21, it rises more toward the southeast. The specific angle varies based on your geographical location, but these general patterns hold true worldwide.

Does the sun rises exactly in the east and sets exactly in the west every day of the year in Ohio?

No, the exact points where the sun rises and sets can vary slightly throughout the year due to Earth's tilt and orbit. In Ohio, the sun rises closest to due east and sets closest to due west around the spring and fall equinoxes. In summer, it rises slightly north of east and sets slightly north of west, while in winter it rises slightly south of east and sets slightly south of west.

Yes and all over the world (except at the poles where there is no East or West) it rises more or less in the east. On the solstices it is furthest from true east (the June solstice has the sun more to the north, the December solstice more to the south). At the equinoxes it rises due east.


Why does the sun rise from north east in summers and south east in winter?

The sun doesn't rise directly from the north east in summers or south east in winter. However, in the northern hemisphere, during summer the sun rises more to the northeast and sets more to the northwest, while in winter it rises more to the southeast and sets more to the southwest due to the tilt of Earth's axis causing the sun's apparent position to change throughout the year.
