About Rahu Kaal in Scranton
Scranton's Rahu Kaal times are calculated from Scranton's actual local sunrise, which today falls at 6:21 AM EDT (3:51 PM IST). Scranton is 9h 30m behind IST, so Indian diaspora residents can check this page to see both the local Scranton 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 Scranton's specific latitude (41.4044°) and longitude (-75.6649°). Today Scranton has 13 hr 23 min of daylight (sunrise 6:21 AM, sunset 7:44 PMEDT). Scranton observes Daylight Saving Time, so the IST offset changes twice a year — this site handles that automatically.
Today's Rahu Kaal (9:41 AM–11:22 AM EDT) is calculated from the same local sunrise (6:21 AM EDT) that photography tools use for golden hour: morning 6:21 AM–6:58 AM (37 min) and evening 7:06 PM–7:44 PM (38 min) — all derived from Scranton's precise coordinates.
