Karlovo sits in the Valley of the Roses beneath the steep southern face of the Balkan Mountains, where the abrupt rise in terrain produces notably higher rainfall than the open Thracian Plain, and mountain streams can rise quickly after heavy storms. NIMH radar coverage extends into this enclosed rose-valley district.
