Why is Pitru Paksha begins on Wed 10 Sep in Orting?

Pratipada holds all of aparahna, 14:22–16:56. Pratipada: 09:36 to 10:12 Thu.
Pratipada ended at 10:12; aparahna is Dwitiya.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC−7). Band: the tithi. Box: Aparahna. Light strip: day; dark strip: night.
The first shraddha of Pitru Paksha is done in aparahna, the fourth fifth of the day. Pratipada runs from 09:36 on Wed 10 Sep to 10:12 on Thu 11 Sep, so only Wednesday’s aparahna (14:22–16:56) falls within it. No text giving Pitru Paksha begins’s time was found; aparahna is Tithika’s convention.
