West. The trip from Chicago, Illinois to Sacramento, California would be in a westerly direction. Chicago is in the north central part of the US, and Sacramento, the Capital of California, is in the central valley in California. California is the state that is farthest west in the US (excluding Alaska and Hawaii).
It will be 9 pm in California when it is 11 pm in the central time zone. California is 2 hours behind the central time zone.
2 PM CT = 12 Noon PT
That depends which part of Texas you are talking about. Most of Texas would be 11am where Central Time is in effect. Central Time is 2 hours ahead of Pacific. But there's a small portion of the westernmost part of Texas that is Mounttin Time which would mean it would be 10am there.
In 1957, Chicago would have been observing Central Daylight Time (CDT) on August 22nd. Chicago typically transitions to Central Standard Time (CST) in the fall.
If it is 12PM Central Time, it would be 10AM in California. California is in the Pacific Time Zone, which is two hours behind Central Time.
The easiest would be to get on Interstate 80 at Chicago and follow it all the way to northern California.
It would be 7:00 in or around Groton/the central part of the us and 8:00 not in the central like in California
Santa Cruz is in Northern/Central California. It is right in the agricultural area of the Nation. I would say it is more central California, but many claim it to be North.
When it's 3 PM CEST (UTC+2), the time in California is 6 AM PDT (UTC-7).
3PM Mountain Time is 4PM Central Time, so it would be 4PM in Chicago.
