Windows are computed for this city — the tithi decides which are valid, so they shift with your location and are not the Indian times. Abhijit and Rahu Kaal belong to the day itself rather than to the festival.
Maha Shivaratri, the "great night of Shiva", falls on the fourteenth night of the waning moon in Magha. Unlike most festivals it is dated by what is happening at *midnight* rather than at sunrise, because the vigil, not the daylight, is the observance.
How it is observed
Devotees fast through the day and keep watch through the night, offering water, milk and bilva leaves to the Shiva linga in four watches. The Nishita Kaal window below is the most auspicious of them.
