Added 42 weeks from current day: 27 Jul, factoring in there are 4 days left in before August

Ways to calculate 42 weeks from today

Just calculate it: Start with a time from today calculator. 42 weeks 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 weeks and choose the length of time, then click "calculate". This calculation does not factor in workdays or holidays (see below!).
Use July's calendar: Begin by identifying on a calendar, note that it’s Saturday, and the total days in August (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 42 times by weeks, adding weeks from 27 Jul.
Use Excel: Regardless of unit type, I use day calculations here. Type =TODAY()+42 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 42 weeks 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.

42 weeks is Saturday May 17, 2025 or could be Wednesday September 10, 2025 if you only want workdays. This calculation takes 42 weeks and only adds by the number of workdays in a week. Remember, removing the weekend from our calculation will drastically change our original Saturday May 17, 2025 date.
