Weather in Iloilo in November

Shoulder season. November sits in between. You will get good days and you will lose some. You should expect rain on 23 days of the month, which is more days wet than dry.

November ranks 10 of 12 — near the bottom of Iloilo's year. February is the month that works, and the swing between the two is 22 points, which is a different holiday rather than a slightly better one.

Rain on 23 of the month's 30 days, 4 of them heavy. At that frequency a wet-weather backup is not a contingency, it is the itinerary — book the indoor things first and treat the clear days as the bonus. Natural fibres and a second shirt for the day. At 85% nothing dries, including you.

What the averages hide

Averages flatten a month, and this one hides a few things: 4 days top 30 °C — hot spells arrive, but they break; the day barely swings — 2.8 °C between the overnight low and the afternoon high. Across the twenty years measured, the hottest November day reached 30.8 °C and the coldest night fell to 24.6 °C, and the wettest single day dropped 105 mm — roughly 64% of the month's rain in one day.

November is statistically steady but not small: the year-to-year variation is modest in relative terms, yet the wettest November on record still delivered 321 mm against 51 mm in the driest. In a month this wet, even a tame spread is a lot of rain in absolute terms — the 165 mm average is a reasonable planning figure, not a promise.

Wind is light at 13.9 km/h, so the temperature on the page is close to the temperature on your skin, and humidity at 85% is the real story though — it is the number that decides how the day feels, not the 29.2 °C.

How November sits in the year

Temperatures hold steady either side: 29 °C in October, 29.2 here, 28.9 in December. Nothing about the timing within the month matters much.

Daylight in November

Iloilo sits close enough to the equator that daylight barely moves all year — 11.6 hours in November, against a range of just 1.2 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: 7.3 °C between the year's warmest afternoons and coldest nights.

How busy it gets

Quiet. Few other visitors, cheaper rooms, and a real chance some seasonal operators are shut.

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

November in Iloilo versus nearby

If Iloilo is one option among several, the nearby comparison is worth making. Cebu City is close enough to be a coin toss — within a degree on temperature, 1 day more rain. Cagayan de Oro is close enough to be a coin toss — within a degree on temperature, 1 day more rain.

So: November works, with February the better month by 16 points if the dates can move. If they cannot, nothing here should stop you booking.
