About Rahu Kaal in Houston

Houston's Rahu Kaal times are calculated from Houston's actual local sunrise, which today falls at 6:53 AM CDT (5:23 PM IST). Houston is 10h 30m behind IST, so Indian diaspora residents can check this page to see both the local Houston 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 Houston's specific latitude (29.786°) and longitude (-95.3885°). Today Houston has 0 hr of daylight (sunrise 6:53 AM, sunset 7:49 PMCDT). Houston observes Daylight Saving Time, so the IST offset changes twice a year — this site handles that automatically.

Today's Rahu Kaal (4:07 AM–2:44 AM CDT) is calculated from the same local sunrise (6:53 AM CDT) that photography tools use for golden hour: morning 6:53 AM–7:25 AM (32 min) and evening 7:17 PM–7:49 PM (32 min) — all derived from Houston's precise coordinates. Photography planner for Houston →
