Why is Holika Dahan on Thu 28 Mar in Myjava?
Holika Dahan is on Thu 28 Mar: Purnima touches pradosha that evening, and no other.
Pradosha is Chaturdashi; Purnima begins at 23:20.
Purnima holds pradosha only until 19:24; then Pratipada. Purnima: 23:20 Wed to 19:24.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC+1). Band: the tithi. Box: Pradosha. Light strip: day; dark strip: night.
Holika is burnt in pradosha, the 3 muhurtas after sunset, outside bhadra. Purnima runs from 23:20 on Wed 27 Mar to 19:24 on Thu 28 Mar, so it touches only Thursday’s pradosha (18:13–20:30).
The rule

Holika is burnt in pradosha, the 3 muhurtas after sunset, outside bhadra.
