2 different start dates for Ramadan are not unusual here in the US, as we have no central religious authority to dictate these things. People follow any number of ways to determine the beginning of the month.

Those who started on Wednesday did so because the calculations told them to, or because they relied on the (faulty) supposed sighting of the moon in Saudi Arabia (where it wasn't humanly possible to be seen, but someone they managed).

Those who started on Thursday either waited for a true sighting of the moon anywhere in the world, or waited to see it in the US.

Both are fine, and par for the course here. No matter how many proclamations and conferences and discussions we have on this issue, the american muslim ummah is unlikely to ever start Ramadan on the same day.
