Do not use the Harbor's data to glean any info on Baltimore's climate.
It's not only in the middle of a huge UHI, but it's to the point that the Harbor is not a reliable spot to collect weather data. It's only use as a weather station should be to record city obs (with the caveat that it's probably not even qualified to be a proper weather station given its horrid location), not to gather climate data or discern Baltimore's climatology.
BWI is the station to use.
