Why is Karwa Chauth on Sat 27 Oct in Olean?

Karwa Chauth is on Sat 27 Oct: Chaturthi holds moonrise that night.

Moonrise at 19:56 is Tritiya; Chaturthi begins at 09:08 Sat.

Chaturthi at moonrise, 20:39. Chaturthi: 09:08 to 07:24 Sun.

One row per day, on one clock (UTC−4). Band: the tithi. Line: Moonrise. Light strip: day; dark strip: night.

The Karwa Chauth fast is broken at moonrise. Chaturthi runs from 09:08 on Sat 27 Oct to 07:24 on Sun 28 Oct, so it holds moonrise only on Sat 27 Oct, at 20:39.

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.
