Weather in Budta in February

Shoulder season. February sits in between. You will get good days and you will lose some. The heat itself is manageable at 31.8 °C, but 83% humidity is what you will actually feel.

Budta barely has seasons. February scores 51 out of 100 against a best of 51 in February — a gap small enough that the month you choose matters far less here than the week you choose.

Rain on 13 days, 3 of them heavy. Enough to need a plan B, not enough to need a plan around it. Natural fibres and a second shirt for the day. At 83% nothing dries, including you.

What the averages hide

Averages flatten a month, and this one hides a few things: 25 days top 30 °C, making the heat continuous rather than occasional. Across the twenty years measured, the hottest February day reached 36.2 °C and the coldest night fell to 18.1 °C, and the wettest single day dropped 47 mm — roughly 51% of the month's rain in one day.

February is moderately variable: 9 mm in the driest year against 226 mm in the wettest, around an average of 93 mm. Roughly two Februarys in three land near that average, and the third does something else entirely.

Wind is light at 4.3 km/h, so the temperature on the page is close to the temperature on your skin, and humidity runs at 83%, high enough to notice on the warm days without dominating them.

How February sits in the year

Temperatures hold steady either side: 31.1 °C in January, 31.8 here, 32.5 in March. Nothing about the timing within the month matters much.

Daylight in February

Budta sits close enough to the equator that daylight barely moves all year — 11.9 hours in February, against a range of just 0.8 hours across the whole calendar. Sunrise and sunset land at roughly the same time whenever you come.

An inland climate

Despite being inland, the year stays fairly even: 10.8 °C between the year's warmest afternoons and coldest nights.

How busy it gets

Peak season. Expect the highest prices of the year and to be booking well ahead. If the dates are flexible, January is the trade worth considering — 7 points weaker on weather, and materially quieter.

Crowd levels are estimated from climate desirability and school-holiday calendars, not from visitor numbers.

February in Budta versus nearby

If Budta is one option among several, the nearby comparison is worth making. Davao is close enough to be a coin toss — within a degree on temperature, 2 days more rain. Cagayan de Oro is a better bet in February — 2.4 °C cooler, the same number of rain days.

So: February is the answer for Budta. If it is booked out or priced out, March is the next best thing at 3 points behind, and May is the month to keep off the shortlist.
