About Rahu Kaal in Chesapeake

Chesapeake's Rahu Kaal times are calculated from Chesapeake's actual local sunrise, which today falls at 6:29 AM EDT (3:59 PM IST). Chesapeake is 9h 30m behind IST, so Indian diaspora residents can check this page to see both the local Chesapeake time and the corresponding IST equivalent — useful when coordinating with family in India.

Unlike most panchang apps which show India-based Rahu Kaal, this page calculates the correct inauspicious period for Chesapeake's specific latitude (36.6778°) and longitude (-76.3023°). Today Chesapeake has 13 hr 11 min of daylight (sunrise 6:29 AM, sunset 7:40 PMEDT). Chesapeake observes Daylight Saving Time, so the IST offset changes twice a year — this site handles that automatically.

Today's Rahu Kaal (9:46 AM–11:25 AM EDT) is calculated from the same local sunrise (6:29 AM EDT) that photography tools use for golden hour: morning 6:29 AM–7:04 AM (35 min) and evening 7:05 PM–7:40 PM (35 min) — all derived from Chesapeake's precise coordinates.
