Why is it warmer in the summer and colder in the winter? Earth is closer to the Sun in the summer and further from the Sun in the winter
As Earth rotates, the side facing the Sun experiences summer, making it hotter
Earth is tilted on its axis
as it orbits the Sun, making the half that is tilted
toward the sun receive more direct sunlight and thus feel hotter.
It does not snow in the summer, so it is hotter.
