Daily Almanac
Today is Thursday, in the Krishna Paksha. Masik Shivaratri vrat is kept today. The tithi is Trayodashi till afternoon, then Chaturdashi begins. Trayodashi is a lively day, good for celebrations. The Moon is in Pushya nakshatra till tomorrow early morning, then Ashlesha. Amrit Siddhi Yoga is on today, a rare good time for any new start. Start new work in Abhijit Muhurta, 11:58 to 12:50, and avoid it in Rahu Kaal, 14:01 to 15:39. The Moon is in Karka rashi and the Sun in Simha.
Vrat

The puja is kept at Nishita Kaal, the middle of the night, with Chaturdashi standing.
The monthly night of Shiva, kept on each Krishna Chaturdashi while the tithi stands at midnight. Devotees fast through the day and offer water and bilva leaves to the Shivalinga in the nishita hours; the Magha one is Maha Shivratri.
Adhika Shravana
Sacred lunar leap month — a time for fasting, charity, and devotional practice.

Panchang windows not defined here today
Choghadiya, Gowri and Rahu Kalam each divide local daylight into eight parts. At very high latitudes (above ~66°) the sun can stay up — or stay down — for the whole day, so a local sunrise/sunset pair doesn't exist for this date. Tithi, nakshatra and yoga above are still valid.
A North Indian timing system: eight day windows and eight night windows, each rated good, neutral, or bad. A quick way to pick (or avoid) a slot for an everyday task.
A South Indian tradition that splits the day and night into eight Gowri windows each — used for picking auspicious slots for everyday work.
A short-list of the six most important windows — three auspicious (Brahma, Abhijit, Amrit) and three to avoid (Rahu, Yamaganda, Gulika). Some days may show fewer if a window isn't computed.
Each day and night splits into twelve planetary hours, each ruled by a planet. The ruling planet sets the hour's tone — pick an hour whose ruler suits the task.
