About Rahu Kaal in Queens

Queens's Rahu Kaal times are calculated from Queens's actual local sunrise, which today falls at 6:14 AM EDT (3:44 PM IST). Queens is 9h 30m behind IST, so Indian diaspora residents can check this page to see both the local Queens 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 Queens's specific latitude (40.7498°) and longitude (-73.7976°). Today Queens has 13 hr 21 min of daylight (sunrise 6:14 AM, sunset 7:35 PMEDT). Queens observes Daylight Saving Time, so the IST offset changes twice a year — this site handles that automatically.

Today's Rahu Kaal (9:34 AM–11:14 AM EDT) is calculated from the same local sunrise (6:14 AM EDT) that photography tools use for golden hour: morning 6:14 AM–6:51 AM (37 min) and evening 6:58 PM–7:35 PM (37 min) — all derived from Queens's precise coordinates. Photography planner for Queens →
