Which is due, of course, to the fact that the sun is hotter (and brighter, and larger) in the summer and colder (and dimmer) in the winter.

The sun does move its arc north in the summer and south in the winter, in relation to the sky dome; AND the dome tilts farther south---much farther---in the winter.
