Masik Durgashtami in Melbourne: questions

+ How many Masik Durgashtami days are there in 2033 in Melbourne?
13, computed for Melbourne's coordinates and the Australia/Melbourne time zone. The first falls on Sat, Jan 8 and the last on Thu, Dec 29.
+ Are Melbourne 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 Melbourne. In 2033, 11 of 13 dates match the Indian (Ujjain) date, 0 fall a day earlier and 2 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. No entry this year needed a flag. 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.
