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 II[32]

No dry season. The rain is heaviest from December to February, and no month is truly dry.

History & Identity

Former name
Payo[4]

Its story

In 1906 the Philippine Commission merged a municipality called Payo, together with Bagamanoc, into Viga, which kept the seat of government.[9]

By 1929 Panganiban stood again as its own municipality, one of seven on Catanduanes that formed a new fourth district of Albay.[10]

Congress changed the town's name from Jose Panganiban to Payo in 1957, and changed it back to Panganiban in 1959.[11, 12]

Timeline

  1. 31 October 1906

    Act No. 1557 merged the municipalities of Payo and Bagamanoc into Viga.[9]

  2. 5 December 1929

    Act No. 3617 listed Panganiban among the seven municipalities of Catanduanes in the new fourth district of Albay.[10]

  3. 20 June 1957

    Republic Act No. 1654, approved this day, renamed Jose Panganiban as Payo.[11]

  4. 5 April 1959

    Republic Act No. 2122, approved this day, renamed Payo as Panganiban.[12]
