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 III[22]

No clear rainiest time of year, and a short dry season of one to three months, in December to February or in March to May.

Covers about 56 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

Official name
Region VI (Western Visayas)[4]
Created
Western Visayas (Region VI) was one of the administrative regions set up when Presidential Decree No. 1 of 24 September 1972 adopted the Integrated Reorganization Plan, which divided the country into regions.[8]

Its story

Presidential Decree No. 1 of 24 September 1972 adopted the Integrated Reorganization Plan that divided the country into administrative regions, among them Region VI.[8]

A 1975 decree on the Bureau of Internal Revenue named two revenue regions in the western Visayas, a Panay Region (Aklan, Capiz, Antique, Iloilo, centred at Iloilo City) and a separate Negros Island Region.[9]

In May 2005 Executive Order No. 429 reorganized Region VI to include Palawan and Puerto Princesa City, but Administrative Order No. 129 held that in abeyance in August 2005.[10, 11]

Executive Order No. 183 of 2015 grouped Negros Occidental with Negros Oriental in a new region, and Executive Order No. 38 of 2017 sent them back to Regions VI and VII.[12, 13]
