Seasonality

As the Earth rotates around the Sun, distance relative to the Sun changes.   This is in part due to the the tilt of the Earth.  In the Northern Hemisphere in the winter, the sun hits the Earth at a lesser angle and shorter days are experienced.  In the Southern Hemisphere it is the opposite.  To better demonstrate seasonality below are five global locations.

The First 3 pins represent the different locations starting at Oslo

Chad and Cape Town a bit harder to see

Temperatures close to the equator have little variation but as distance grows so does variation.  Sunrise and sunset times grow further apart the further apart from the equator.  To the North sunrise grows later and to the South it gets earlier.
