Baltimore has four distinct seasons, with warm weather prevailing from April through October. Winters are relatively short and typically consist of more rain than snow. Summers bring heat, humidity, and often afternoon thunderstorms. March through May and September through November-the spring and the fall-are the best times to visit Baltimore. Daytime highs average from the 50s through the 70s during these months. The seasons are tempered by the presence of the Appalachian Mountains in the northwest, which block snow and precipitation from the Great Lakes region, and by the Delmarva Peninsula to the southeast, which protects the city from tropical storms coming in by sea.
