What to expectOrmoc through the year

Ormoc changes little through the year. Average daily highs stay between 29 and 31 °C, so no month stands out as a season in the way it would further from the equator.

Rain is strongly seasonal. July averages 294 mm against 65 mm in April — 4.5 times as much. Planning around the dry months matters more here than planning around temperature.

The sea off Ormoc is warmest in June at 30 °C and coldest in February at 28 °C. Sea temperature lags the air by a month or two, which is why late summer swims warmer than early summer at the same air temperature.
