The
Four Seasons
Do
you know that the different seasons are caused by the movements
of the Earth and its position in relation to the Sun ? When the
North Pole begins to slant toward the sun, the Northern Hemisphere
start to receive the most sunlight and Spring begins, followed
by Summer. When it begins to slant away from the sun, the Northern
Hemisphere receives the least sunlight and Fall begins, followed
by Winter.
The
poles, have only two seasons: a short light season, in which
the sun shines almost all day, and a dark season, in which the
sun almost never shine.
The
seasons in the Northern hemisphere
Winter
- begins on the winter solstice, on December 22 or 23.
Spring - begins on the vernal equinox, on March 20 or 21.
Summer - begins on the summer solstice, on June 21 or 22.
Fall - begins on the autumnal equinox, on September 22 or 23.
I
live in the Southern hemisphere. To know when the seasons begin
here, just reverse the seasons. For instance, when it's Winter
in the Northern hemisphere, it's Summer here in the Southern.
