Havre de Grace shares the same warm-to-hot, humid summers and cold winters documented across Maryland's central Bay-region markets in this dataset.
Direct Chesapeake Bay tidal-flooding and storm-surge exposure
Havre de Grace sits directly at the Susquehanna River/Chesapeake Bay confluence -- a real, direct exposure to Maryland's documented statewide tidal-flooding trend (sea levels up roughly 10 inches since 1950, tidal flooding up 178% since 2000, 23,000+ at-risk properties statewide) and to storm surge from hurricanes and nor'easters.
No meaningful tornado or earthquake risk
Consistent with Maryland statewide (see maryland.js), Havre de Grace carries no meaningful tornado or earthquake exposure -- its real, defining hazard is Bay-driven coastal flooding rather than either of those risks.
