The former medieval capital sits dramatically along the winding Yantra River gorge, where the steep terrain around the fortress hills means heavy rain drains quickly into the river below and can raise water levels fast during sustained storms. The surrounding Danubian foothills bring somewhat more rainfall than the flatter plain to the north. NIMH radar covers the Yantra valley closely.
