About Rahu Kaal in Hickory

Hickory's Rahu Kaal times are calculated from Hickory's actual local sunrise, which today falls at 6:50 AM EDT (4:20 PM IST). Hickory is 9h 30m behind IST, so Indian diaspora residents can check this page to see both the local Hickory 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 Hickory's specific latitude (35.741°) and longitude (-81.3223°). Today Hickory has 13 hr 9 min of daylight (sunrise 6:50 AM, sunset 7:59 PMEDT). Hickory 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 (6:50 AM EDT) that photography tools use for golden hour: morning 6:50 AM–7:25 AM (35 min) and evening 7:25 PM–7:59 PM (34 min) — all derived from Hickory's precise coordinates.
