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[31]

History & Identity

How it got its name

Local traditionThe municipality's own About page says the place was named after the native word 'Lantapan', meaning 'level on top', because it is a plateau between the Kalatungan and Kitanglad ranges.[9]

Its story

Lantapan was formerly a village of Malaybalay. It lies on a plateau between the Kalatungan and Kitanglad ranges.[9]

Executive Order No. 119 of 1964 first created the municipality from barrios of Malaybalay, with its seat at the barrio of Lantapan; it was to exist only once its officials were appointed and the Secretary of Finance certified it could pay its way.[10]

Timeline

  1. 1 October 1964

    Executive Order No. 119 created the municipality of Lantapan out of Malaybalay.[10]

  2. 18 June 1966
