Winter in Camiguin

Winter in Camiguin has come! Every year there are about 8 weeks of grey and rather cold weather here in Camiguin. Winter!

The lousy weather usually starts begin December and lasts until end of January. During the last years, the 8 weeks shifted rather toward January and February. This year the humid winter season started around December 16. Theoretically this weather will last until February 16.

Friends were asking if there were a depression. No, the only depressions here are in the brains of some sensitive persons who cannot stand the grey clouds all day.

Rather high pressure

Today’s extremes were 1009 and 1013 hPa.

Temperature – it’s fresh

Today’s extremes were 24.8 and 26.4 °C. I start to wear long sleeves and my nose starts to flow. 

Let’s hope …

We hope this winter won’t be as wet as in 2009. Remember …
