How this panchang is calculated for Sacramento
Every timing on this page is solved for 38.5816° N, 121.4944° W, the coordinates of Sacramento, California, and printed in America/Los_Angeles (UTC-07:00 today). On August 29, 2026 the sun rises at 6:32 AM and sets at 7:40 PM here, a 13h 8m day. Rahu Kalam, Yamaganda, Gulika Kalam and the daily muhurtas are all divisions of that local sunrise-to-sunset span, which is why Rahu Kalam falls at 9:47 AM – 11:25 AM in Sacramento instead of matching a panchangam printed for India. Sacramento clocks run 12h 30m behind IST.
Tithi, nakshatra, yoga and karana are astronomical events shared by the whole planet, so they begin and end at the same instant everywhere — but the clock time you see them at is your own. The end times above are converted into Sacramento time, not IST. Residents of Elk Grove, Folsom and Roseville are close enough to Sacramento to use these timings as printed.
