How this panchang is calculated for San Francisco

Every timing on this page is solved for 37.7749° N, 122.4194° W, the coordinates of San Francisco, California, and printed in America/Los_Angeles (UTC-07:00 today). On August 29, 2026 the sun rises at 6:37 AM and sets at 7:43 PM here, a 13h 6m 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 9:52 AM – 11:30 AM in San Francisco instead of matching a panchangam printed for India. San Francisco 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 San Francisco time, not IST. Residents of Daly City, South San Francisco and Oakland are close enough to San Francisco to use these timings as printed.

Panchang questions people ask about San Francisco

What time is Rahu Kalam in San Francisco today?

On August 29, 2026, Rahu Kalam in San Francisco, California runs from 9:52 AM – 11:30 AM local time. It is derived from San Francisco's own sunrise and sunset, so it does not match the Rahu Kalam printed in an India-based panchangam.

What time is sunrise and sunset in San Francisco today?

The sun rises at 6:37 AM and sets at 7:43 PM in San Francisco, California on August 29, 2026, giving a day length of 13h 6m. Every muhurta on this page is measured from those two moments.

Is this panchang calculated for San Francisco specifically?

Yes. The five elements are astronomical, but the day's windows are not: every timing here is solved for 37.7749° N, 122.4194° W in the America/Los_Angeles timezone (UTC-07:00 today). San Francisco clocks run 12h 30m behind IST. The same timings apply across Daly City, South San Francisco and Oakland.
