Explanation:

For locations in the Northern Hemisphere (like 41° N latitude), at local noon, the Sun is in the south - direction as the Earth rotates and the Sun appears to move across the sky. The Sun reaches its maximum altitude at local noon, and for positions north of the Tropic of Cancer (23.5° N), the Sun is always in the southern sky at noon.

South
