Seattle Panchang

Bellevue's Hindu Temple and Kent's Sanatan Dharam Mandir serve a smaller, more spread-out community than the Bay Area. Winter sunrise in Seattle can be after 8am — Brahma Muhurat then falls around 6:30am, not the 4:50am IST habit many families still quote from Uttar Pradesh.

Pacific Time with DST. At 47°N, June daylight is long: sunset after 9pm PDT, so night Choghadiya starts late and the 'evening Rahu' folklore from India does not map.
