Winter Harbour Location
74.7833, -110.8000
Winter Harbour sits at 74.7833°N, 110.8000°W, on the coast of Northwest Territories, Canada. The marker on the map shows the spot the readings on this page come from. It usually sits a short distance from the town centre, out on the open water itself, so the numbers stay tied to the coast rather than a generic point inland.
Coastlines bend, headlands focus the water, and the temperature can run noticeably differently between two beaches that look close together on a map. Comparing nearby locations is a quick way to see how local geography is shaping the readings.
