Winter

Winter is one of the four temperate seasons, typically characterized by cold weather, shorter days, and longer nights. It occurs between autumn and spring, generally spanning from December to February in the Northern Hemisphere and from June to August in the Southern Hemisphere. During winter, temperatures can drop significantly, often resulting in snow, frost, and ice. This season is associated with a variety of natural phenomena, such as hibernation of certain animals, the dormancy of many plants, and the occurrence of winter sports and activities. Winter also plays a significant role in various cultural traditions, holidays, and festivities around the world, often symbolizing themes of rest, celebration, and renewal.
