Ekadashi in Washington, D.C.: questions

+ How many Ekadashi days are there in 2030 in Washington, D.C.?
24, computed for Washington, D.C.'s coordinates and the America/New York time zone. The first falls on Mon, Jan 14 and the last on Fri, Dec 20.
+ Are Washington, D.C. Ekadashi 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 Washington, D.C.. In 2030, 11 of 24 dates match the Indian (Ujjain) date, 13 fall a day earlier and 0 a day later.
+ How is the date decided?
This calendar uses the local day on which the Ekadashi tithi is in force at sunrise. Where it holds at two sunrises, the first is shown and the second is flagged; where it begins and ends between two sunrises, the day it begins is shown. 4 of this year's 24 entries for Washington, D.C. 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.
