Why is Karwa Chauth on Sat 11 Oct in Simrishamn?

Karwa Chauth is on Sat 11 Oct: Chaturthi holds moonrise that night.

Moonrise at 19:19 is Tritiya; Chaturthi begins at 06:48 Sat.

Chaturthi at moonrise, 19:56. Chaturthi: 06:48 to 06:03 Sun.

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

The Karwa Chauth fast is broken at moonrise. Chaturthi runs from 06:48 on Sat 11 Oct to 06:03 on Sun 12 Oct, so it holds moonrise only on Sat 11 Oct, at 19:56.

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.
