About Rahu Kaal in Columbia

Columbia's Rahu Kaal times are calculated from Columbia's actual local sunrise, which today falls at 6:51 AM EDT (4:21 PM IST). Columbia is 9h 30m behind IST, so Indian diaspora residents can check this page to see both the local Columbia 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 Columbia's specific latitude (34.0378°) and longitude (-80.9036°). Today Columbia has 13 hr 4 min of daylight (sunrise 6:51 AM, sunset 7:55 PMEDT). Columbia observes Daylight Saving Time, so the IST offset changes twice a year — this site handles that automatically.

Today's Rahu Kaal (10:07 AM–11:45 AM EDT) is calculated from the same local sunrise (6:51 AM EDT) that photography tools use for golden hour: morning 6:51 AM–7:24 AM (33 min) and evening 7:22 PM–7:55 PM (33 min) — all derived from Columbia's precise coordinates.
