Why is Buddha Purnima on Fri 16 May in Pāthardi?

One row per day, on one clock (IST). Band: the tithi. Line: Sunrise. Light strip: day; dark strip: night.
Buddha Purnima follows the tithi at sunrise. Purnima runs from 12:50 on Thu 15 May to 09:05 on Fri 16 May, so it holds sunrise only on Fri 16 May, at 05:54. No text giving Buddha Purnima’s time was found; sunrise is Tithika’s convention.
