About Seattle
Seattle is the largest city in Washington State and a leading technology and aerospace centre, where major software, cloud and e-commerce companies have their headquarters. It is also a busy Pacific port, known for the Space Needle, Pike Place Market, its coffee culture and views of Mount Rainier and Puget Sound.
Seattle uses Pacific Time, with Pacific Standard Time (UTC-8) in winter and Pacific Daylight Time (UTC-7) in summer. It shares its clock with San Francisco, Los Angeles and Vancouver, and is three hours behind New York. For calls to Europe, the Seattle morning is the only practical window, while its late afternoon lines up well with the start of the working day in Japan and Australia.
