About Rahu Kaal in Gainesville

Gainesville's Rahu Kaal times are calculated from Gainesville's actual local sunrise, which today falls at 7:01 AM EDT (4:31 PM IST). Gainesville is 9h 30m behind IST, so Indian diaspora residents can check this page to see both the local Gainesville 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 Gainesville's specific latitude (29.6804°) and longitude (-82.3459°). Today Gainesville has 12 hr 56 min of daylight (sunrise 7:01 AM, sunset 7:57 PMEDT). Gainesville observes Daylight Saving Time, so the IST offset changes twice a year — this site handles that automatically.

Today's Rahu Kaal (10:15 AM–11:52 AM EDT) is calculated from the same local sunrise (7:01 AM EDT) that photography tools use for golden hour: morning 7:01 AM–7:33 AM (32 min) and evening 7:25 PM–7:57 PM (32 min) — all derived from Gainesville's precise coordinates.
