About Rahu Kaal in Jersey City
Jersey City's Rahu Kaal times are calculated from Jersey City's actual local sunrise, which today falls at 6:15 AM EDT (3:45 PM IST). Jersey City is 9h 30m behind IST, so Indian diaspora residents can check this page to see both the local Jersey City 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 Jersey City's specific latitude (40.7184°) and longitude (-74.0686°). Today Jersey City has 13 hr 21 min of daylight (sunrise 6:15 AM, sunset 7:36 PMEDT). Jersey City observes Daylight Saving Time, so the IST offset changes twice a year — this site handles that automatically.
Today's Rahu Kaal (9:35 AM–11:15 AM EDT) is calculated from the same local sunrise (6:15 AM EDT) that photography tools use for golden hour: morning 6:15 AM–6:52 AM (37 min) and evening 7:00 PM–7:36 PM (36 min) — all derived from Jersey City's precise coordinates.
