Why is Karwa Chauth on Thu 7 Oct in Diffa?

Karwa Chauth is on Thu 7 Oct: Chaturthi holds moonrise that night.

Moonrise at 19:34 is Tritiya; Chaturthi begins at 02:07 Thu.

Chaturthi at moonrise, 20:30. Chaturthi: 02:07 to 23:09.

One row per day, on one clock (UTC+1). Band: the tithi. Line: Moonrise. Dark strip: night.

The Karwa Chauth fast is broken at moonrise. Chaturthi runs from 02:07 on Thu 7 Oct to 23:09 on Thu 7 Oct, so it holds moonrise only on Thu 7 Oct, at 20:30.

The rule

Kartika Krishna Chaturthi (purnimanta) · Ashwina Krishna Chaturthi (amanta)

The Karwa Chauth fast is broken at moonrise.

Smarta: the night whose moonrise Chaturthi holds; when it touches both, the earlier; when neither, the later (Dharmasindhu).
Vaishnava: the Smarta day.
