However, the use of veto power must also not be used at the Presidentâs leisure, as such an abuse of authority may lead to conflict arising in terms of the relationship between that of the Commander in Chief and Congress.
When Does Winter Start? The period when winter starts differ in the Northern and Southern Hemisphere. In the Northern Hemisphere it is from December 20 up to March 21. In the Southern Hemisphere this would be around June 20 and culminates on September 22. The beginning and end dates may vary a day or two.
However, in the United Kingdom and Ireland the winter solstice is traditionally considered as midwinter, the winter season beginning November 1 on All Hallows or Samhain. Winter ends and spring begins on Imbolc or Candlemas, which is February 1 or 2. This system of seasons is based on the length of days exclusively. The three-month period of the shortest days and weakest solar radiation occurs during November, December and January in the Northern Hemisphere (May-July in the Southern).
