Why is Karwa Chauth on Fri 17 Oct in Mapleton?

Karwa Chauth is on Fri 17 Oct: Chaturthi holds moonrise that night.

Moonrise at 19:40 is Tritiya; Chaturthi begins at 05:09 Fri.

Chaturthi at moonrise, 20:30. Chaturthi: 05:09 to 02:08 Sat.

One row per day, on one clock (UTC−6). Band: the tithi. Line: Moonrise. Light strip: day; dark strip: night.

The Karwa Chauth fast is broken at moonrise. Chaturthi runs from 05:09 on Fri 17 Oct to 02:08 on Sat 18 Oct, so it holds moonrise only on Fri 17 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.
