I'd love to see one somewhere up a mountain in the far south of Patagonia, right at the tree line. Ushuaia is already below the 10C-in-the-warmest-month limit - exactly how cold of a climate are those trees growing in?

The highest hill (2,000ft) on the Isle of Man really needs a weather station. Probably be one of the most comfortable, liveable climes in the UK. I'd have a house built there, if I could afford it. I might work out some estimated averages later.

I might work out some estimated averages later. Snaefell did have a station and there is data from 1961 to 1987. Unfortunately, it hasn't been digitzed and is only available in print at the Met Office library. library.metoffice.gov.uk/Portal/Default/en-GB/RecordView/Index/635467 |

Just a few places I'd like to place a station if I had all the money and time in the world...
Mount Kinabalu, Malaysia
Viñales Valley in western Cuba
Blue Mountain Peak, Jamaica
Extremely remote volcanic desert peaks in the Sahara, such as Emi Koussi in Chad
The highpoints of all 50 US states

Sunshine records at Bellingham, Everett, Tacoma, Wenatchee, Ellensburg, Yakima, Tri-Cities, The Dalles, Hood River, La Grande, Baker City, Aberdeen, Astoria, Tillamook, Lincoln City, Newport, Florence, Coos Bay, Brookings, Crescent City, Salem, Eugene, Madras, Bend, Burns, Roseburg, Grants Pass, Medford, Klamath Falls, Lakeview, Alturas, Yreka, Weaverville, Susanville, and Mount Shasta. Fuckaaaan. (But seriously, the PNW in general needs more places with sunshine records.) Idk how accurate the data is, but some of these places you listed do have sunshine data on their wiki boxes, these are the ones I know of in WA/OR. Bend, OR: 3,163.8 Spokane, WA: 2,575.3 Eugene, OR: 2,532.2 Salem, OR: 2,463.7 Walla Walla, WA: 2,449.2 Yakima, WA: 2,351 Portland, OR: 2,340.9 Seattle, WA: 2,169.7 Tacoma, WA: 2,167 Bellingham, WA: 1,866 Forks, WA: 1,530.3 I would be very curious about sunshine totals for Tri-Cities (driest and hottest inhabited place in WA), Sequim (driest location in western WA), and the Hanford Site (driest and hottest location in WA) |

For for the first time ever and after many failed attempts, I received approval to install a station: at Hawkeye Point, Iowa's highest point. This is part of my highpoint weather project that I'm working with the Highpointers Foundation on to place station at U.S. state high points.

Many tropical mountain peaks.
Some valleys in Tibet.
Some frost hollows in Siberia and Alaska/Northern Canada.
Malpelo island in Colombia.
Mountain peaks in northern California/southern Oregon.

Stumpy Point, NC:  I wonder what the temps are like there, being surrounded by water on two directions (Pamlico Sound and Stumpy Point Bay, being part of it); shame there are no nearby stations there:  |

The densest part of Atlanta in Centennial Olympic Park or in Piedmont Park needs a station. There is tons of green space for a proper station siting, so no I'm not talking about a Lindosesque rooftop station. Lows would be significantly warmer than the airport, which is not a super dense area and just pretty normal suburbia, doesn't capture the fullest extent of the UHI.
