It describes how winter is cold with snow, spring brings rain and new growth, summer is hot and ideal for vacations, and fall is cool with changing leaves. The video also explains the Earth's orbit and tilt, which cause seasonal changes, and notes that areas near the equator experience consistent warm weather year-round.
