What's the date 28 days from today?

Solution

Thursday May 23, 2024

if 28 days from today is 23 May 2024, a Thursday. Calculations getting closer to a full month, introduces multiple weekends, and 30 days of April become large factors including the day of the week. Since today is Thursday, we'll have to adjust for the weekend, if you care about the number of work days. We now must add several weekends and, 28 days moves us from the end of April to potentially crossing into May. I personally care about counting work days so if 28 days from now will need to be readjusted for a fiscal calendar (don’t worry, I calculate it below).

How we calculated 28 days from today

All of our day calculators are measured and QA'd by our engineer. Read more about the Git process here. But here's how adding 28 days to today's date gets calculated on each visit:

Started with date inputs: starting point: 25 Apr, Units to add: 28 days, and year: 2024
Noted your current time of year: 28 days in end of April will bring us into May. (Or far beyond).
Added 28 days from current day: 25 Apr, factoring in there are 7 days left in before May
Did NOT factor in workdays: In this calculation, we kept weekend. See below for just workdays or the 2024 fiscal calendar.

Tips to get your solution: May 23

Thursday Thursday May 23, 2024 is the 144 day of the year or 39.45% through 2024.

Current date: 25 Apr
Day of the week: Thursday
New Date: Thursday May 23, 2024
New Date Day of the week: Thursday
April is the start of Q2. Counting dates from here will push you further into the fiscal year. (And taxes are due)
This calculation crosses at least one month. Remeber, this will change our day of the week.

Ways to calculate 28 days from today

Just calculate it: Start with a time from today calculator. 28 days is easiest solved on a calculator. For ours, we've already factored in the days in + all number of days in each month and the number of days in 2024. Simply add your days and choose the length of time, then click "calculate". This calculation does not factor in workdays or holidays (see below!).
Use April's calendar: Begin by identifying on a calendar, note that it’s Thursday, and the total days in May (trust me, you’ll need this for smaller calculations) and days until next year (double trust me, you'll need this for larger calculations). From there, count forward 28 times by days, adding days from 25 Apr.
Use Excel: Regardless of unit type, I use day calculations here. Type =TODAY()+28 into the cell. If you want to add weeks, multiply your day by 7 and months/years will take their own calculation due to the changing days of the week. To find 28 days workdays, convert to days but use =WORKDAY(TODAY(), [number of days], [holidays]) into the cell. [number of days] is how many working days you want to add, and [holidays] is an optional range of cells that contain dates of holidays to exclude.

28 working days from today

28 days is Thursday May 23, 2024 or could be Sunday June 02, 2024 if you only want workdays. This calculation takes 28 days and only adds by the number of workdays in a week. Remember, removing the weekend from our calculation will drastically change our original Thursday May 23, 2024 date.
