When is the shortest weather in a year?

The solar term is the winter solstice.

The shortest day and the longest night in a year are winter solstice.

The winter solstice is June 65438+February 2 1 ~ 23 in Gregorian calendar every year. It is worth noting that around the winter solstice, the earth is located near the perihelion, and its running speed is slightly faster, resulting in that the time of direct sunlight in the southern hemisphere is about 8 days shorter than that in the northern hemisphere in a year, so the winter in the northern hemisphere is slightly shorter than that in summer.
