Sunrise, sunset, and the eight daylight segments that define Rahu Kaal and Choghadiya are computed for Los Angeles at 34.05°N, 118.24°W in America/Los_Angeles, so clock times differ from cities on another meridian or latitude even when the calendar date matches.
Tithi and other limbs are named for local sunrise, so a place with an earlier or later sun can show a different limb than a city hundreds of kilometres away on the same civil morning.
Local guide for Los Angeles
Local time zone
Los Angeles sits near 34.05N 118.24W in United States under America/Los_Angeles. Los Angeles uses Pacific Time with standard time at UTC-8 and daylight time at UTC-7, with daylight saving usually beginning on the second Sunday of March and ending on the first Sunday of November. Nearest catalogue cities for comparison are San Diego, Las Vegas, San Francisco; each keeps its own sunrise even when the timezone name matches America/Los_Angeles. Engine mid-month samples for 2026 put day length between 9 h 55 min and 14 h 25 min at these coordinates.
Sunrise, sunset and the Panchang
For Los Angeles, sunrise on the 2026 mid-month samples runs from about 5:40 AM to about 7:02 AM on the local clock. At 34.05 degrees north, the longest sampled day (14 h 25 min) falls near June and July, while the shortest (9 h 55 min) falls near December and January. Sunset follows from that day length, so a 14 h 25 min day stretches every daylight fraction and a 9 h 55 min day compresses them. When America/Los_Angeles flips for daylight saving in Los Angeles, rebuild Panchang labels from the new sunrise rather than shifting an old sheet by one hour. Do not paste IST sunrise from Delhi onto Los Angeles; convert through America/Los_Angeles and 34.05N 118.24W.

Rahu Kaal in this city
Rahu Kaal is one eighth of local daytime from sunrise to sunset. In Los Angeles during 2026, that block samples from about 1 h 14 min on short days to about 1 h 48 min on long days. The weekday that carries Rahu Kaal in Los Angeles stays the same rule set, but the civil clock span widens when daytime reaches 14 h 25 min. Derive the interval from Los Angeles sunrise and sunset under America/Los_Angeles, not from a printed sheet for another metro.
Choghadiya windows here
Choghadiya splits day (sunrise to sunset) and night (sunset to next sunrise) into eight quality watches. On a 14 h 25 min sample in Los Angeles, day watches lengthen and night watches shrink; on a 9 h 55 min sample the reverse holds. Because Los Angeles is in the northern hemisphere, a June daylight sheet runs longer than a December sheet. Prefer Labh, Amrit, or Shubh for starts in Los Angeles; treat Kaal and Rog as poor launch windows on the local clock.
How to use today
Open the Los Angeles Panchang page with timezone America/Los_Angeles and confirm sunrise, sunset, dawn Tithi, Rahu Kaal, and Abhijit Muhurta for the civil date you care about. Expect sunrise between about 5:40 AM and 7:02 AM across the 2026 mid-month samples, with Rahu Kaal near 1 h 14 min to 1 h 48 min. After the March or autumn clock change for United States, refresh the page before booking. Festival leaflets that quote Delhi IST still need a fresh Los Angeles sunrise for the same lunar day.05N 118.24W.

The names of the day are those limbs at local sunrise. Sunrise, moonrise, and the electional windows all belong to the place you enter, which is why a Panchang changes from city to city.
