plant <a href="/wiki/Hardiness_zone" title="Hardiness zone">hardiness zones</a> 7b and 8a.<a href="#cite_note-143">[141]</a> Summers are normally warm, with occasional late day thunderstorms. July, the warmest month, has a mean temperature of 80.3 °F (26.8 °C). Winters range from chilly to mild but vary, with sporadic snowfall: January has a daily average of 35.8 °F (2.1 °C),<a href="#cite_note-NOAA_downtown-144">[142]</a> though temperatures reach 50 °F (10 °C) quite often, and can occasionally drop below 20 °F (−7 °C) when Arctic air masses affect the area.<a href="#cite_note-NOAA_downtown-144">[142]</a> According to <a href="/wiki/Vox_(website)" title="Vox (website)">Vox</a>, winters are warming faster than summers.<a href="#cite_note-vox-142">[140]</a> Spring and autumn are mild, with spring being the wettest season in terms of the number of precipitation days. Summers are hot and humid with a daily average in July of 80.7 °F (27.1 °C).<a href="#cite_note-NOAA_downtown-144">[142]</a> The combination of heat and humidity leads to occasional thunderstorms. A southeasterly bay breeze off the Chesapeake often occurs on summer afternoons when hot air rises over inland areas. Prevailing winds from the southwest interacting with this breeze as well as the city proper's UHI can seriously exacerbate air quality.<a href="#cite_note-145">[143]</a><a href="#cite_note-146">[144]</a> In late summer and early autumn the track of hurricanes or their remnants may cause flooding in downtown Baltimore, despite the city being far removed from the typical coastal <a href="/wiki/Storm_surge" title="Storm surge">storm surge</a> areas.<a href="#cite_note-147">[145]</a> The average seasonal snowfall is 19 inches (48 cm).<a href="#cite_note-NOAA_NowData-148">[146]</a> It varies greatly by year, with some seasons seeing only trace accumulations of snow, while others see several major <a href="/wiki/Nor%27easter" title="Nor'easter">Nor'easters</a>.<a href="#cite_note-150">[c]</a> Owing to lessened <a href="/wiki/Urban_heat_island" title="Urban heat island">urban heat island</a> (UHI) as compared to the <a href="/wiki/City_limits" title="City limits">city proper</a> and distance from the moderating Chesapeake Bay, the outlying and inland parts of the Baltimore metro area are usually cooler, especially at night, than the city proper and the coastal towns. Thus, in the northern and western suburbs, winter snowfall is more significant, and some areas average more than 30 in (76 cm) of snow per winter.<a href="#cite_note-151">[148]</a> It is common in winter for the rain-snow line to set up in the metro area.<a href="#cite_note-152">[149]</a> <a href="/wiki/Freezing_rain" title="Freezing rain">Freezing rain</a> and sleet occur a few times some winters in the area, as warm air overrides cold air at the low to mid-levels of the atmosphere. When the wind blows from the east, the cold air gets <a href="/wiki/Cold_air_damming" class="mw-redirect" title="Cold air damming">dammed against the mountains</a> to the west and the result is freezing rain or sleet. Like <a href="/wiki/Climate_change_in_Maryland" title="Climate change in Maryland">all of Maryland</a>, Baltimore is at risk for increased impacts of <a href="/wiki/Global_warming" class="mw-redirect" title="Global warming">climate change</a>. Historically, flooding has ruined houses and almost killed people, especially in lower income majority Black neighborhoods, and caused sewage backups, given the existing disrepair of Baltimore's water system.<a href="#cite_note-153">[150]</a> Extreme temperatures range from −7 °F (−22 °C), which has occurred 5 times on January 17, 1982, January 22, 1984, 29 January, 1963, February 9, 1934, and <a

It comprises 72 designated historic districts<a href="#cite_note-219">[211]</a> traditionally occupied by distinct ethnic groups. Most notable today are three downtown areas along the port: the Inner Harbor, frequented by tourists because of its hotels, shops, and museums; Fells Point, once a favorite entertainment spot for sailors but now refurbished and gentrified (and featured in the movie <a href="/wiki/Sleepless_in_Seattle" title="Sleepless in Seattle">Sleepless in Seattle</a>); and <a href="/wiki/Little_Italy,_Baltimore" title="Little Italy, Baltimore">Little Italy</a>, located between the other two, where Baltimore's Italian-American community is based – and where U.S. House Speaker <a href="/wiki/Nancy_Pelosi" title="Nancy Pelosi">Nancy Pelosi</a> grew up. Further inland, <a href="/wiki/Mount_Vernon,_Baltimore" title="Mount Vernon, Baltimore">Mount Vernon</a> is the traditional center of cultural and artistic life of the city. It is home to a distinctive <a href="/wiki/Washington_Monument_(Baltimore)" title="Washington Monument (Baltimore)">Washington Monument</a>, set atop a hill in a 19th-century urban square, that predates the monument in Washington, D.C. by several decades.

The first <a href="/wiki/Limited-access_highway" class="mw-redirect" title="Limited-access highway">limited-access highway</a> serving Baltimore was the <a href="/wiki/Baltimore%E2%80%93Washington_Parkway" title="Baltimore–Washington Parkway">Baltimore–Washington Parkway</a>, which opened in stages between 1950 and 1954. Maintenance of it is split: the half closest to Baltimore is maintained by the state of Maryland, and the half closest to Washington by the <a href="/wiki/National_Park_Service" title="National Park Service">National Park Service</a>. Trucks are only permitted to use the northern part of the parkway. Trucks (tractor-trailers) continued to use <a href="/wiki/U.S._Route_1_in_Maryland" title="U.S. Route 1 in Maryland">U.S. Route 1</a> (US 1) until <a href="/wiki/Interstate_95_in_Maryland" title="Interstate 95 in Maryland">Interstate 95</a> (I-95) between Baltimore and Washington opened in 1971. The Interstate highways serving Baltimore are <a href="/wiki/Interstate_70_in_Maryland" title="Interstate 70 in Maryland">I-70</a>, <a href="/wiki/Interstate_83" title="Interstate 83">I-83</a> (the Jones Falls Expressway), I-95, <a href="/wiki/Interstate_395_(Maryland)" title="Interstate 395 (Maryland)">I-395</a>, <a href="/wiki/Interstate_695_(Maryland)" title="Interstate 695 (Maryland)">I-695</a> (the Baltimore Beltway), <a href="/wiki/Interstate_795_(Maryland)" title="Interstate 795 (Maryland)">I-795</a> (the Northwest Expressway), <a href="/wiki/Interstate_895_(Maryland)" class="mw-redirect" title="Interstate 895 (Maryland)">I-895</a> (the Harbor Tunnel Thruway), and <a href="/wiki/Interstate_97" title="Interstate 97">I-97</a>. The city's mainline Interstate highways—I-95, I-83, and I-70—do not directly connect to each other, and in the case of I-70 end at a park and ride lot just inside the city limits, because of <a href="/wiki/Highway_revolts" class="mw-redirect" title="Highway revolts">freeway revolts</a> in Baltimore. These revolts were led primarily by <a href="/wiki/Barbara_Mikulski" title="Barbara Mikulski">Barbara Mikulski</a>, a former <a href="/wiki/United_States_senator" class="mw-redirect" title="United States senator">United States senator</a> for Maryland, which resulted in the abandonment of the original plan. There are two tunnels traversing Baltimore Harbor within the city limits: the four-bore <a href="/wiki/Fort_McHenry_Tunnel" title="Fort McHenry Tunnel">Fort McHenry Tunnel</a> (opened in 1985 and serving I-95) and the two-bore <a href="/wiki/Baltimore_Harbor_Tunnel" title="Baltimore Harbor Tunnel">Harbor Tunnel</a> (opened in 1957 and serving I-895). Until <a href="/wiki/Francis_Scott_Key_Bridge_collapse" title="Francis Scott Key Bridge collapse">its collapse in March 2024</a>, the Baltimore Beltway crossed south of Baltimore Harbor over the <a href="/wiki/Francis_Scott_Key_Bridge_(Baltimore)" title="Francis Scott Key Bridge (Baltimore)">Francis Scott Key Bridge</a>. The first interstate highway built in Baltimore was <a href="/wiki/Interstate_83" title="Interstate 83">I-83</a>, called the Jones Falls Expressway (first portion built in the early 1960s). Running from the downtown toward the northwest (NNW), it was built through a natural corridor over the <a href="/wiki/Jones_Falls" title="Jones Falls">Jones Falls River</a>, which meant that no residents or housing were directly displaced. A planned section from what is now its southern terminus to I-95 was abandoned. Its route through parkland received criticism. Planning for the Baltimore Beltway antedates the creation of the <a href="/wiki/Interstate_Highway_System" title="Interstate Highway System">Interstate Highway System</a>. The first portion completed was a small strip connecting the two sections of I-83, the Baltimore-Harrisburg Expressway and the Jones Falls Expressway. The only <a href="/wiki/United_States_Numbered_Highways" class="mw-redirect" title="United States Numbered Highways">U.S. Highways</a> in the city are US 1, which bypasses downtown, and <a href="/wiki/U.S._Route_40_in_Maryland" title="U.S. Route 40 in Maryland">US 40</a>, which crosses downtown from east to west. Both run along major surface streets, US 40 utilizes a small section of a freeway cancelled in the 1970s in the west side of the city, originally intended for <a href="/wiki/Interstate_170_(Maryland)" title="Interstate 170 (Maryland)">Interstate 170</a>.

Retrieved August 9, 2012. <q>The biennial homeless censuses, which are required under federal law and are conducted on a single day—this year, Jan. 25—have trended upward since the first one in 2003 counted 2,681 homeless people in Baltimore, compared to 4,088 this year, according to the report by Morgan State's School of Architecture and Planning. Called a "point-in-time" survey, the census effort looks for homeless people living on the streets and those checking into shelters and hospital emergency rooms and receiving other homeless services. The count of Baltimore's young homeless people, which is evaluated separately by the Center for Adolescent Health at the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health and is undertaken over a period of weeks instead of one day, has risen 135 percent since 2007, from 272 to 640. Rather than canvassing the streets for homeless youngsters, the effort relies on data provided by cooperating service providers, including the city public-schools system.</q></cite><span title="ctx_ver=Z39.88-2004&rft_val_fmt=info%3Aofi%2Ffmt%3Akev%3Amtx%3Ajournal&rft.genre=article&rft.jtitle=CityPaper&rft.atitle=Census+shows+striking+growth+in+Baltimore+homelessness+Population+swells+nearly+20+percent+in+two+years%3B+ranks+of+homeless+young+people+increase+50+percent&rft.date=2011-10-19&rft.aulast=Smith&rft.aufirst=Van&rft_id=http%3A%2F%2Fcitypaper.com%2Fnews%2Fcensus-shows-striking-growth-in-baltimore-homelessness-1.1219779&rfr_id=info%3Asid%2Fen.wikipedia.org%3ABaltimore" class="Z3988"> </li> <li id="cite_note-auto3-194">^ <a href="#cite_ref-auto3_194-0">a</a> <a href="#cite_ref-auto3_194-1">b</a> <a href="#cite_ref-auto3_194-2">c</a> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1238218222"><cite id="CITEREFIngraham2015" class="citation news cs1">Ingraham, Christopher (April 30, 2015). <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/wonk/wp/2015/04/30/baltimores-poorest-residents-die-20-years-earlier-than-its-richest/">"14 Baltimore neighborhoods have lower life expectancies than North Korea"</a>.
