Why is Chhath on Sat 5 Nov in Bothell?
Chhath · Sandhya Arghya is on Sat 5 Nov: Shashthi holds sunset that evening.
Sunset at 17:45 is Panchami; Shashthi begins at 22:17.
Shashthi at sunset, 17:43. Shashthi: 22:17 Fri to 23:46.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC−7). Band: the tithi. Line: Sunset. Light strip: day; dark strip: night.
The evening arghya is offered at sunset. Shashthi runs from 22:17 on Fri 4 Nov to 23:46 on Sat 5 Nov, so it holds sunset only on Sat 5 Nov, at 17:43. No text giving Chhath · Sandhya Arghya’s time was found; sunset is Tithika’s convention.
