Why is Karwa Chauth on Thu 8 Oct in Simrishamn?

Karwa Chauth is on Thu 8 Oct: Chaturthi holds moonrise that night.

Chaturthi at moonrise, 20:08. Chaturthi: 11:02 to 07:47 Fri.

Chaturthi ended at 07:47; moonrise at 20:46 is Panchami.

One row per day, on one clock (UTC+2). Band: the tithi. Line: Moonrise. Dark strip: night.

The Karwa Chauth fast is broken at moonrise. Chaturthi runs from 11:02 on Thu 8 Oct to 07:47 on Fri 9 Oct, so it holds moonrise only on Thu 8 Oct, at 20:08.

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.
