About the panchang in Baton Rouge
Baton Rouge's clocks change twice a year: CDT (UTC−05:00) from Mar 8 until Nov 1 2026, and CST (UTC−06:00) the rest of the year. Every time on this page is local clock time with the change already applied; on the switch-over days, all timings jump by an hour.
Sunrise in Baton Rouge moves from 6:03 AM (Jun 4) to 7:23 AM (Mar 8), and daylight lasts from 10 h 8 min to 14 h 4 min. Rahu Kalam, Yamaganda and Gulika are each one-eighth of the daytime, so in Baton Rouge they last about 76 minutes in the shortest days and 106 minutes in the longest: never a fixed 90 minutes, and never fixed clock times.
Dates can differ from India too. Tithis are counted from local sunrise, so in 2026, 13 of the 24 Ekadashis in Baton Rouge fall on a different day than in India. That is why a panchang made for India can give the wrong fasting day here.
All calculations use Drik Ganita: Baton Rouge's own sunrise and sunset (NOAA solar formulas) and the true positions of the Sun and Moon (Astronomy Engine, validated against NASA JPL), with Lahiri ayanamsa.
