This live stream looks out over Houston, the largest city in Texas and one of the biggest urban areas in the United States. It is a useful window for checking how the city looks right now, from the skyline to the sky above the Gulf Coast plains. The page also gives you local time and current conditions in one place.

About Houston

Houston sits on the flat Gulf Coast plain of southeastern Texas, a short distance inland from Galveston Bay. It is known for its energy industry, its major medical center, the Johnson Space Center and a diverse population with a wide range of cultures and cuisines. The city grew quickly from a small port on the Buffalo Bayou and today is one of the country's main hubs for business, shipping and aviation.

What the camera shows

The stream is run by the University of Houston, and its title points to a city view, so you can expect a broad look at the urban area and its towers. Views like this are most readable in clear daylight, while in the evening city lights and the sky colour change the scene. Haze, humidity and passing storms can affect visibility, so the picture is worth checking before you judge the conditions.

Climate and getting around

Houston has a humid subtropical climate, with hot and humid summers and mild winters. Spring and autumn are generally the most comfortable seasons, and the hurricane season from June to November can bring heavy rain and wind to the coast. Nearby cameras on this site show other parts of the city, including the East Side skyline, downtown and Uptown.
