Why is Chhath on Tue 16 Nov in Olean?
Chhath · Sandhya Arghya is on Tue 16 Nov: Shashthi touches sunset on neither evening, and the earlier day is taken.
Sunset at 16:51 is Panchami; Shashthi begins at 18:16. Shashthi: 18:16 to 15:45 Wed.
Shashthi ended at 15:45; sunset at 16:50 is Saptami. Shashthi: 18:16 Tue to 15:45.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC−5). Band: the tithi. Line: Sunset. Light strip: day; dark strip: night.
The evening arghya is offered at sunset. Shashthi runs from 18:16 on Tue 16 Nov to 15:45 on Wed 17 Nov, between the two evenings’ sunset, touching neither. The Nirnayasindhu then takes the earlier day: Tue 16 Nov. No text giving Chhath · Sandhya Arghya’s time was found; sunset is Tithika’s convention.
