Why is Chhath on Sun 5 Nov in Baoding?

Sunset at 17:14 is Panchami; Shashthi begins at 17:50. Shashthi: 17:50 to 15:32 Mon.
Shashthi ended at 15:32; sunset at 17:13 is Saptami. Shashthi: 17:50 Sun to 15:32.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+8). Band: the tithi. Line: Sunset. Light strip: day; dark strip: night.
The evening arghya is offered at sunset. Shashthi runs from 17:50 on Sun 5 Nov to 15:32 on Mon 6 Nov, between the two evenings’ sunset, touching neither. The Nirnayasindhu then takes the earlier day: Sun 5 Nov. No text giving Chhath · Sandhya Arghya’s time was found; sunset is Tithika’s convention.
