Why is Chhath on Thu 12 Nov in Olean?
Chhath · Sandhya Arghya is on Thu 12 Nov: Shashthi touches sunset on neither evening, and the earlier day is taken.
Sunset at 17:55 is Panchami; Shashthi begins at 20:04.
Shashthi ended at 17:40; sunset at 17:54 is Saptami. Shashthi: 20:04 Thu to 17:40.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC−4). Band: the tithi. Line: Sunset. Light strip: day; dark strip: night.
The evening arghya is offered at sunset. Shashthi runs from 20:04 on Thu 12 Nov to 17:40 on Fri 13 Nov, between the two evenings’ sunset, touching neither. The Nirnayasindhu then takes the earlier day: Thu 12 Nov. No text giving Chhath · Sandhya Arghya’s time was found; sunset is Tithika’s convention.
