Earth's axis keeps nearly the same direction during a yearly orbit. When one hemisphere tilts toward the Sun, it has summer while the other has winter. Longer daylight and more direct sunlight generally support summer warming. Both hemispheres share nearly the same Earth-Sun distance; daily weather still varies.
Worked example
At one invented midlatitude location, a summer record has 14 daylight hours and a winter record has 10. The difference is 4 hours. This comparison is not a rule for every latitude. The hemisphere on the opposite side of the equator has the opposite seasonal pattern.
Southern Location Record
At orbit position Q, the Southern Hemisphere tilts toward the Sun. A fictional midlatitude southern location has 16 hours of daylight. At the opposite part of the orbit, the same location has 8 daylight hours. These invented records are not for a real town and do not predict an afternoon's temperature.
