About this day

Daylight lasts 9 hours and 6 minutes, so each eighth of the day, the length of Rahu Kalam, is about 68 minutes.

Between this sunrise and the next: tithi and karana at 9:36 am, nakshatra at 9:43 am, yoga at 1:53 pm, karana at 8:05 pm, tithi and karana at 6:44 am Sunday, nakshatra at 7:35 am Sunday. Krishna Chaturthi begins and ends within the day, so no sunrise names it.

On a Saturday, Rahu Kalam is the third of the eight parts of daylight, from 10:16 am in Detroit.
