As you may know, the Philippines is located near the equator of the earth. The equator has no seasons due to getting virtually the exact same sun exposure year long. The Philippines are just a few hundred miles from the equator hence having a similar climate. The Philippines don't really get that cold, it just stays hot all year. This is also due to the same reason why the equator stays the same temperature. Also, the ocean plays a vital roll in keeping the temperatures the same with its mild breeze.The only difference is that the Philippines gets just a little more sun in the summer and a little less sun in the winter. The sun exposure length is slightly less in the winter than in the summer so this means that the temperature will be slightly less in the winter than in the summer. There is approximately a five degree difference between summer highs and winter highs.

Actually the Philippine seasons are "dry" and "wet" or "Monsoon" as some people call it.
The month that has the highest average temperature is April with an average high of 93 degrees F and approximately 32-35 degrees C.

May through October is really wet in the Philippines with over 60 inches or rain in that period. December through April stays relatively dry with the occasional shower in December.

Temperatures in the Philippines normally stay between 93 for the Summer high and 71 for the winter low. Not much variance at all.

To wrap it up, the Philippines has tow seasons Dry and Wet. Fluctuations of temperatures during the year are so small that they are barely note-worthy.
