The four windows people confuse
Three inauspicious, one auspicious. All four are eighths of today's solar arc in Surrey.
Rahu Kaal
Rahu
17:07 – 18:29
The window to avoid beginning anything new — travel, signing, buying, a first meeting.
Yamaganda
Ketu
12:59 – 14:21
Also avoided for new beginnings, and routinely mistaken for Rahu Kaal.
Gulika Kaal
Saturn
15:44 – 17:07
Saturn's eighth. Traditionally avoided, though held to be the mildest of the three.
Abhijit Muhurat
Brahma
12:37 – 13:21
The opposite: the midday window held to be auspicious for almost anything.

When Surrey's clocks change
Canada does not change its clocks, so the only thing that moves Rahu Kaal here is the Sun: sunrise in Surrey is 05:08 at the June solstice and 09:06 at the December one, 238 minutes apart.
Why Surrey needs its own figure
Across the year
In Surrey, Rahu Kaal is shortest at 61 minutes and longest at 121 minutes across the year, a spread of 60 minutes set by this city's latitude.
Against the nearest city
Vancouver is 22 km away, and today its Rahu Kaal runs 17:08–18:30 against Surrey's 17:07–18:29. Sunrise differs, so the eighth differs. That gap is the reason this page is computed for Surrey rather than for the region.

These windows come from the Sun and the weekday, so a whole city shares them. Whether a period is actually good for you depends on your own running dasha and the transits over your chart.
