When the Southern Hemisphere is pointed away from the Sun, it is considered winter in South America.
The fact that the Earth is tilted on its axis, causes there to be discrepancies in the timing of summer and winter between the northern and southern hemispheres. When the northern hemisphere of the Earth is pointed towards the Sun, it is summer in the north, such as in North America.
