Sunrise, Daylight & Panchangam Timings in New York
New York lies at latitude 40.7°N. Across 2026, sunrise in New York ranges from about 5:24 AM at its earliest (around Jun) to roughly 7:22 AM at its latest (around Oct). The longest day lasts about 15.1 hours near Jun, shrinking to roughly 9.3 hours around Dec.
Rahu Kalam, Yamagandam, Gulika Kalam and the daily Muhurthams are each measured as fixed fractions of the time between local sunrise and sunset. Because that span changes through the year in New York, these windows shift too — and they differ from every city in India. That is why this page recomputes the full Panchangam for New York’s own coordinates and timezone each day, instead of reusing timings calculated for another location.
Common Questions — Panchangam in New York
What time is sunrise in New York?
Sunrise in New York is not fixed — it varies from about 5:24 AM at its earliest (around Jun) to roughly 7:22 AM at its latest (around Oct). This page computes sunrise daily for New York’s coordinates (40.7°N), so the Tithi, Nakshatram, Rahu Kalam and Muhurtham windows always reflect the real local day.
Why does New York’s Rahu Kalam differ from the Panchangam my family uses in India?
Rahu Kalam is one-eighth of the daytime, measured from local sunrise to sunset. New York runs about 9.5 hours behind India and sits at latitude 40.7°N, so its sunrise and day length are different — which means the eight Rahu Kalam slots land at different clock times. A Panchangam printed for Hyderabad or Vijayawada will not line up with New York.
Can Telugu festival dates differ in New York?
Yes, sometimes. Festivals are fixed by the Tithi at local sunrise (or moonrise/midday for some). Because New York is about 9.5 hours behind India, a Tithi can begin or end on a different local date — so festivals such as Deepavali or Vinayaka Chavithi occasionally fall a day earlier or later than in India. Each festival date on this page is computed for New York’s own timezone.
