Dear All:
I received a few questions on Pongal timing . These calendar timings across Multiple time Zones can be confusing .
In response to your Question on some at West Coast celebrating Pongal on Saturday , Here are some pertinent facts:
1. For East Coast USA , Makara Ravi is at 17.28 PM Saturday ; That projects on to 14.28 PM for West Coast . The rationale of some to celebrate Pongal during the afternoon of Saturday, Jan 14 is based on this logic .
2. For East Coast , by 17.28 PM , Sunset has already taken place on Jan 14 and therefore Pongal Paanai is moved on to Sunday , Jan 15 ( 7.30 to 9 AM ) . This is the observance at Sri Ranganatha Temple here and East Coast residents. This time will be too early for the West Coast people since Sun has not risen yet in West Coast .
3. For West Coast residents , 7.30 to 9.00 AM Pacific Time on Sunday is fine .
4. Summing up , Tomorrow is BhOgi ( Jan 14) , SankarAnti is Jan 15 for USA and Kanu is on Monday , Jan 16 .
Have a Happy Pongal celebrations !
