Birmingham is surrounded by mountains to the east and hills to the south. These geographical features block or redirect air masses moving into the region. The Appalachian Mountains, in particular, can force warm, moist air from the Gulf of Mexico to rise, cool, and condense, resulting in precipitation. The nearby hills can channel winds and enhance thunderstorm activity.
