Yes, CBs are northeast of the airport - the "dsnt" indicates that they're not within 10 statute miles of the airport.

Here's a link which explains the SLP and other significant remarks in US METARs -- just scroll down to the METAR remarks section (just prior to the METAR ON ASOS/AWOS section) :

Or go HERE and scroll to item #22
