Weather and Ballpark Factors

I noticed in some utilities and spreadsheet, there is a "carry" factor that can be used to adjust ballpark factors. But, my understanding is that now the game accounts for weather separately from the ballpark factors.

So, my question is, do I need to adjust ballpark factors to take care of weather, or will the game do that itself based on the weather data? For example, suppose I create a stadium with small dimensions....I would expect more HRs all things being equal. Therefore, I would have stadium factors of say 1.200 for HR. Now if I put that stadium in Alaska, HRs should be less. So, do I need to then reduce that factor of 1.20? Or, do I just leave it at 1.20 and then the game will separately account for weather and make the adjustment automatically?
