When is the sun's position most likely to be at its highest point in the spring?

In spring, the sun reaches its highest point in the sky during noon due to the Earth's tilt relative to the sun and its position in orbit. At noon, typically, solar noon is when the sun is at its zenith for that location, meaning it is at its highest elevation above the horizon for the day. This occurs when the sun is directly south (in the Northern Hemisphere) or north (in the Southern Hemisphere) of the observer's location depending on the time of year.

During other times of the day, such as dawn or sunset, the sun is either rising or setting, and therefore not at its highest point. In winter, the sun is generally lower in the sky compared to spring, which makes noon in winter not the highest point for the year. In addition, at sunset during the fall, the sun is again descending in the sky. Therefore, the correct understanding of the sun's position in spring is linked to the noon mark when it will be at its peak height in the sky.
