The station is located in the town of Sydney Mines, Nova Scotia. It is situated in a low-lying area on the outskirts of town, next to the Pond Bridge which crosses "Big Pond". The pond is connected to the Atlantic Ocean a few km's to the northeast. Sydney Mines is located in central Cape Breton, ~10km NNW of Sydney.

I own a second weather station 2.9km southeast of my location, operated remotely via WeatherlinkIP. It is interesting to observe the large differences in weather conditions that can occur over this short distance. Elevation, proximity to water, and the urban "heat island" effect all contribute to form a unique microclimate around each station.
