About Houston
Houston operates on Central Time and serves as a major base for the space and energy sectors. The regional climate is characterized by significant heat and humidity, which often dictates local daily schedules. It is generally advisable to schedule travel early in the day to navigate around typical afternoon thunderstorms.
Clocks in Houston change between standard and summer time, so the gap to Sweden may shift for a few weeks when the dates differ.
