Masik Durgashtami in Milwaukee: questions

+ How many Masik Durgashtami days are there in 2028 in Milwaukee?
13, computed for Milwaukee's coordinates and the America/Chicago time zone. The first falls on Tue, Jan 4 and the last on Sat, Dec 23.
+ Are Milwaukee Masik Durgashtami dates the same as in India?
Not always. A tithi starts at the same instant everywhere, but the sunrise that decides the day happens at a different moment in Milwaukee. In 2028, 6 of 13 dates match the Indian (Ujjain) date, 7 fall a day earlier and 0 a day later.
+ How is the date decided?
This calendar uses the local day on which the Shukla Ashtami tithi is in force at sunrise. 2 of this year's 13 entries for Milwaukee are flagged because of that. Local temples may follow a particular sampradaya's rule, so check with them for ritual purposes.
+ How accurate are these times?
Times come from truncated astronomical series and should fall within a few minutes of a full ephemeris. Near a boundary a published panchanga may assign a different day. They are for planning practice, not for precise ritual muhurta.
