Philippineswhen to go
Philippines' national averages run from 28 °C in January to 31 °C in May, with rainfall between 123 mm in March and 371 mm in July and 4.3–7.4 hours of sun a day. Against the default preferences (under 2.7 mm of rain a day, at least 6 hours of sun), the strongest months are March, January and February. Its 118 regions span 26–32 °C in annual mean temperature, so the national figure hides a good deal.
