Solar day bounds for New York in Eastern Time.

Rahu Kalam

An inauspicious daytime interval derived from the local solar day.

Muhurat

Auspicious windows (for example Brahma Muhurat or Abhijit) for this city's sunrise–sunset day.

Choghadiya

Day and night segments (Amrit, Shubh, Labh, and others) derived from this city's local solar day — used to choose auspicious windows.

Flushing's Ganesha Temple and the Hindu Temple Society still publish some notices in IST. For a New York vrat, the governing sunrise is the one over Queens, not Delhi — which in August is roughly 10.5 hours behind IST. Janmashtami midnight abhishek at ISKCON Brooklyn is local midnight, not 12:00 IST replayed on a projector.

Eastern Time springs forward on the second Sunday in March and falls back on the first Sunday in November. The Sunday of the change, daylight Choghadiya is one slot shorter; do not reuse Saturday's printed table.
