Sunrise, sunset, and the eight daylight segments that define Rahu Kaal and Choghadiya are computed for Vancouver at 49.26°N, 123.11°W in America/Vancouver, 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 Vancouver

Local time zone

Vancouver sits near 49.26N 123.11W in Canada under America/Vancouver. Vancouver 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 Seattle, Calgary, San Francisco; each keeps its own sunrise even when the timezone name matches America/Vancouver. Engine mid-month samples for 2026 put day length between 8 h 14 min and 16 h 14 min at these coordinates.

Sunrise, sunset and the Panchang

For Vancouver, sunrise on the 2026 mid-month samples runs from about 5:06 AM to about 8:01 AM on the local clock. At 49.26 degrees north, the longest sampled day (16 h 14 min) falls near June and July, while the shortest (8 h 14 min) falls near December and January. Sunset follows from that day length, so a 16 h 14 min day stretches every daylight fraction and a 8 h 14 min day compresses them. When America/Vancouver flips for daylight saving in Vancouver, rebuild Panchang labels from the new sunrise rather than shifting an old sheet by one hour. Do not paste IST sunrise from Delhi onto Vancouver; convert through America/Vancouver and 49.26N 123.11W.

Rahu Kaal in this city

Rahu Kaal is one eighth of local daytime from sunrise to sunset. In Vancouver during 2026, that block samples from about 1 h 2 min on short days to about 2 h 2 min on long days. The weekday that carries Rahu Kaal in Vancouver stays the same rule set, but the civil clock span widens when daytime reaches 16 h 14 min. Derive the interval from Vancouver sunrise and sunset under America/Vancouver, 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 16 h 14 min sample in Vancouver, day watches lengthen and night watches shrink; on a 8 h 14 min sample the reverse holds. Because Vancouver is in the northern hemisphere, a June daylight sheet runs longer than a December sheet. Prefer Labh, Amrit, or Shubh for starts in Vancouver; treat Kaal and Rog as poor launch windows on the local clock.

How to use today

Open the Vancouver Panchang page with timezone America/Vancouver and confirm sunrise, sunset, dawn Tithi, Rahu Kaal, and Abhijit Muhurta for the civil date you care about. Expect sunrise between about 5:06 AM and 8:01 AM across the 2026 mid-month samples, with Rahu Kaal near 1 h 2 min to 2 h 2 min. After the March or autumn clock change for Canada, refresh the page before booking. Festival leaflets that quote Delhi IST still need a fresh Vancouver sunrise for the same lunar day.26N 123.11W.

Panchang means five limbs: Tithi (the lunar day, from the angle between Sun and Moon), Vara (the weekday), Nakshatra (the Moon’s mansion among 27), Yoga (a combined solar-lunar angle), and Karana (half of a Tithi). 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.
