Why is Karwa Chauth on Mon 12 Oct in Diffa?

Karwa Chauth is on Mon 12 Oct: Chaturthi holds moonrise that night.

Moonrise at 19:49 is Tritiya; Chaturthi begins at 04:33 Mon.

Chaturthi at moonrise, 20:40. Chaturthi: 04:33 to 03:10 Tue.

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 04:33 on Mon 12 Oct to 03:10 on Tue 13 Oct, so it holds moonrise only on Mon 12 Oct, at 20:40.

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
