⏰ What Time Is It in Seattle? Your Complete Time Zone Guide

Planning across time zones can be tricky—especially in a global city like Seattle. Whether you’re traveling, scheduling meetings, or trying to catch a livestream, understanding the local time is essential. This guide helps you easily figure out what time it is in Seattle—and why it matters.

Seattle’s Time Zone: Pacific Time (PT)

Seattle is in the Pacific Time Zone (PT), which includes two variations:

• Pacific Standard Time (PST) – UTC -8 (used from early November to mid-March)

• Pacific Daylight Time (PDT) – UTC -7 (used from mid-March to early November)

Each spring, clocks “spring forward” by one hour for daylight saving time, and each fall, they “fall back.” This shift helps optimize daylight during the longer summer months.

Why Knowing the Time Matters

If you're working remotely or planning travel to Seattle, knowing the correct local time can help avoid confusion. Seattle is:

• 3 hours behind New York (Eastern Time)

• 8 hours behind London (GMT)

• 9.5 hours behind India (IST)

• 16 hours behind Sydney (AEST)

So if you’re booking a Zoom call or planning a delivery, syncing time zones ensures everything goes smoothly.
