Winter is marked by decreased temperatures, often the lowest of the year. This is due to the tilt of the Earth's axis causing sunlight to be reduced in a given hemisphere as the Earth orbits the Sun. [[Christmas]] and [[Saint Valentine's Day]] are examples of holidays that are celebrated during winter, and [[Saint Patrick's Day]] is celebrated at the near end of winter.
