Climate

Climate typeClimate typePAGASA sorts the country's climate into four types by when the rain falls. Type I has a dry season from November to April and a wet one for the rest of the year; Type II has no dry season, with the most rain from December to February; Type III has a short dry season; Type IV has rain spread through the year.More in the glossary

Type IV[35]

Rain spread fairly evenly through the year, with no dry season.

Covers about 89 of every 100 parts of its land. Read by Scene off PAGASA's climate map, so approximate: the type that covers most of the place's land.

History & Identity

Created
Nasipit's own website says the town became a municipality through Executive Order No. 181 of Acting Governor General Eugene Gilmore, after it was split off from Butuan on 1 August 1929.[9]

How it got its name

Local traditionThe town's own history gives a legend for the name. A native had just been bitten by a crab when an immigrant asked him what the place was called. He misunderstood the question and answered na-si-pit, which means bitten by a crab.[9]

Nasipit nearly changed its name. A former governor, Teofisto Guingona Sr., proposed Aurora, but townsfolk opposed it strongly and the name Nasipit stayed.[9]

Its story

The town's website says its recorded history goes back to about 1880, when the Spanish declared it a pueblo.[9]

The same page says Nasipit was split from Butuan on 1 August 1929 and made a municipality by an executive order of the American-era government.[9]

In 1949 Republic Act No. 380 took four of its barrios, Carmen, Tagcatong, Cahayagan and San Agustin, to form the new municipality of Carmen.[10]

In 1972 Congress passed laws for an emergency hospital and a national vocational school in Nasipit, then part of Agusan del Norte.[11, 12]
