About this month
March 2026 in Washington, DC runs through Phalguna and Chaitra masas. Sunrise moves from 6:41 AM on the 1st to 6:55 AM on the 31th, so Rahu Kalam, Abhijit and every other timing shift with it.
Clocks change on Sunday, March 8 (UTC−04:00); all times on this page already include it.
Dates follow the tithi at Washington's sunrise (or the kaal each festival requires), which is why some fall a day earlier than in India.
