Morganton is situated in a valley surrounded by the Blue Ridge Mountains to the northwest and the Brasstown Bald to the northeast. The city's position in this valley affects the atmospheric pressure. The mountains create a rain shadow effect, blocking moisture-laden air from the east. The valley's shape also allows cold air to settle, leading to colder temperatures in winter.
