Dur Muhurtam in San Francisco today
Daylight in San Francisco today, Friday, September 18, 2026, is 12 hr 18 min (sunrise 6:54 AM, sunset 7:13 PM), so each of the day’s fifteen muhurtas is 49 min. Dur Muhurtam today is 9:22 AM – 10:11 AM: one window, which is what a Friday carries.
It is clear of Rahu Kaal (11:31 AM – 1:03 PM) in San Francisco today. Abhijit Muhurat (12:39 PM – 1:28 PM) is untouched by it today. Because a muhurta is a fifteenth of real daylight, the same weekday’s Dur Muhurtam in San Francisco is longer in June than in December, and it starts at a different clock time in every city.
Regional traditions differ on this table more than they do for Rahu Kaal, and widely reproduced versions give Monday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday a second window. The reference panchang this site is calibrated against lists none of them (one window on every weekday, checked across ten years of its published tables), and we follow the reference. If your family panchang shows a second window, that is the disagreement you are seeing, not an error in the arithmetic.

Dur Muhurtam in San Francisco: questions
What time is Dur Muhurtam today in San Francisco?▼
9:22 AM – 10:11 AM on Friday, September 18, 2026, computed from San Francisco’s own sunrise at 6:54 AM and sunset at 7:13 PM. Each window is one muhurta, 49 min today, and is avoided for beginnings only; work already underway is not interrupted for it.
How many Dur Muhurtam windows are there today in San Francisco?▼
One, because a Friday carries 1. Some weekdays have a single window and others two; the count depends on the weekday, the clock times on San Francisco’s sunrise.
How long is a muhurta in San Francisco today?▼
49 min. A day muhurta is one fifteenth of daylight, and San Francisco has 12 hr 18 min of it today, so each Dur Muhurtam window runs 49 min, not a nominal 48 minutes.
