What changes with location
With a sunrise-anchored panchangam, the same sky moment can land on different civil dates. The sample below is engine-computed - not a live daily table.
Sample: 2026-06-15 (engine) - not live today
| Place | Sunrise | Tithi at sunrise | Nakshatra |
|---|---|---|---|
| Chennai | 15 Jun 2026, 05:43 | Amavasya | Mrigashira |
| Seattle | 15 Jun 2026, 17:42 | Pratipada | Mrigashira |
On this sample day, Chennai sunrise tithi is Amavasya while Seattle sunrise tithi is Pratipada - same civil date label intent, different limb at local sunrise.

Why Local Panchangam Matters in Seattle
With a 12.5 to 13.5 hour difference between IST and Pacific Time, plus northern latitude sunrise shifts reaching nearly 8:00 AM in winter, using Indian print tables in Seattle fails for sunrise-anchored limbs.
For Tamil households across Seattle, Redmond, Bellevue, and Bothell, relying on local coordinate calculations ensures authentic observance of vratams, festivals, and muhurthams.

Should I use India times abroad?
For sunrise-anchored limbs - no. Use local sunrise for your place; the same sky moment can land on different civil dates.
Does DST affect nalla neram?
Wall-clock labels move with the zone; sky events are continuous. AstroYogam uses IANA timezone rules - not a fixed IST offset.
Which panchangam do temples in Seattle follow?
It varies by temple - ask the local priest. We compute Thirukanitha for the coordinates you set.
