The December solstice occurs when the sun is at its farthest south point from the equator. This happens on December 21st or 22nd each year in the Northern Hemisphere, and on June 20th or 21st in the Southern Hemisphere. In South Sudan, this means that the sun is directly overhead at noon on the December solstice. The days are longest on the summer solstice and shortest on the winter solstice.
