Winter is the coldest season of the year. Some people like this and some don’t. Snow makes it hard to travel to school or work. Also, winter storms can be very dangerous. So many people may ask why we need this season. When it comes to nature, the plants need shorter days and lower temperatures to become dormant. Also because of Winter we get fewer bugs around. Such as mosquitos, this prevents less diseases that they carry. Winter is good for people as well. People sleep better in the winter because as people go to sleep, their body temperature will drop. The most important reason why we need winter is because of the way the Earth is tilted. So, that means we get winter while somewhere else gets summer.
Winter comes from an old Germanic word that means “time of water”. They call it this because it refers to the rain and snow during this season. When the cold starts coming, and the snow starts dropping is when the trees die down and so do plants. You also might notice a change in the lighting outside, and it will start getting dark way earlier than usual.
A big thing Winter is known for is the snow and Christmas coming up. What a lot of people do is lay down and watch Christmas movies, sled, and drink hot chocolate. Cold weather can bring people together, love, and connection. People seem to be nicer and no one can complain for a little vacation during this time.
