Summer/winter northern/southern hemisphere

[Syringer]

How does the differentiation of summer/winter work as its affected in each hemisphere? Do all countries below the equator, who are technically in winter right now, refer to the seasons oppositely of us? What about countries that have the equator running through them?

 

[spartan]

The countries near the equator don't have four seasons. It's hot all year round.

there isn't just fall, winter, spring, summer......


some parts of the world have "monsoon season", rainy season, dry season, etc.

To some here in the South of the Northern Hemisphere the only season that matters is huntin' season!
