The climate of Baltimore (Maryland
- United States of America)
Baltimore is located on the east coast of Maryland on Chesapeake Bay
and on the banks of the Patapsco River. Because of its location on
Chesapeake Bay Baltimore is one of the most important ports in the
United States. Baltimore is the largest city in Maryland with a
population figure of 650,000. Baltimore has a beautiful skyline with
many high rise buildings. Among the most beautiful buildings in the
city are the Emerson Bromo-Seltzer Tower and the Baltimore Basilica.
Several annual festivals are held in Baltimore. One of the largest
aquariums in the world can be found in Baltimore as well. Baltimore
has a moderate maritime climate influenced by the Chesapeake Bay and
the Atlantic Ocean. Summers are pleasantly warm with fairly high
precipitation figures. Winters may be cold. However, because of the
influence of the Atlantic Ocean extremely low temperatures are
uncommon. During the winter precipitation may fall in the form of
snow.

More climate information
Climate figures are very useful but don’t present a general impression
of the climate and the eventual weather circumstances within a certain
period. The figures don’t always reflect the chance of wintry weather,
extreme heat or hurricanes. That is why we offer useful extra climate
information for each month of the year:
