The barometric pressure in Murphy, North Carolina is influenced by the Appalachian Mountains. Pressure changes occur frequently due to the region's unique terrain. This leads to shifting weather patterns and unpredictable storms.

Murphy is situated in a valley surrounded by mountains. The nearby peaks force winds to rise, cool, and condense, resulting in precipitation. The valley traps cold air, causing temperatures to drop rapidly overnight.

Weather patterns are further complicated by the nearby Nantahala River. Moist air from the river evaporates and rises, forming clouds and increasing the likelihood of precipitation.
