Climate seasons was said to be varying depending on what location on the globe your country reside; some have two seasons only like in the Philippines but some have more than two.

Usual Climate Seasons in the Philippines

Actually, if one is a keen observer, there are only two standard seasons, namely when the sun is out up there at its best which is called summer season, and when the sun is too shy to shine which is called cold season or in some other countries it is called winter season where it rains snowflakes; and there is no more than two. The only reason why some have seasons like autumn and snow time because of temperature changes during the cold seasons or hot seasons in a specific country that experiences more than two climate seasons.

But in the Philippines is said to be in the equator of the globe, experiences a balanced tow climate seasons; not too hot summer season and not too cold season. However, because of global climate changes, the Philippines too no more experienced the standard or balanced climate seasons the Philippines used to experience.

Rainy Season in the Philippines

For recently (I thought it was March- June 2010),the Philippines experience heat wave up to 39 °C hot, similar to other countries who experiences the same and more than two climate seasons. Philippines summer season have become too very hot and not normal anymore as compare to past summer seasons back then. But Philippines’ cold season is still on normal range as well as the Philippines typhoon months is still not out of sync, because the Philippines never yet experience snow or heavy downpour of ice or frozen rain drops because its cold season become too very cold.

Certain places like Manila and most lowland areas are hot and dusty from March to May. Monsoon rains although hard and drenching are not normally associated with high waves and strong winds. The reason why the Philippines have a slightly bizarre climate is because it is geographically located at the typhoon belt and the country suffers an annual onslaught and dangerous storms from July to October.
An average of 6 to 7 tropical cyclones hit the Philippines per year. Some are very strong causing vast devastations some are not.
