Unlike most panchang apps which show India-based Rahu Kaal, this page calculates the correct inauspicious period for Cincinnati's specific latitude (39.1413°) and longitude (-84.506°). Today Cincinnati has 0 hr of daylight (sunrise 6:59 AM, sunset 8:16 PMEDT). Cincinnati observes Daylight Saving Time, so the IST offset changes twice a year — this site handles that automatically.
