8 days from today is 04 Aug 2024, a Sunday. Calculating if 8 days from today takes us beyond a simple week, making the process slightly more intricate. Since today is Saturday, the calculation could be adjusted for work days. But If you just want the overall days, nothing will change. For an 8-day span, we’ll now cross over a week, and candidly, I usually care about work days so I would account for them. Moving forward by over a week from July means we also navigate closer to August, as we’re still in the end of this month.

How we calculated 8 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 8 days to today's date gets calculated on each visit:

Started with date inputs: starting point: 27 Jul, Units to add: 8 days, and year: 2024
Noted your current time of year: 4 days in end of July
Added 8 days from current day: 27 Jul, factoring in there are 4 days left in before August
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: August 04

Sunday Sunday August 04, 2024 is the 217 day of the year or 59.45% through 2024.

Current date: 27 Jul
Day of the week: Sunday
New Date: Sunday August 04, 2024
New Date Day of the week: Sunday
Counting dates from July might put you in the fall. Remember, July is a big vacation month so you might need to factor in vacation time in your calculation.
This calculation crosses at least one month. Remeber, this will change our day of the week.

Ways to calculate 8 days from today

Just calculate it: Start with a time from today calculator. 8 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 July's calendar: Begin by identifying on a calendar, note that it’s Sunday, 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 8 times by days, adding days from 27 Jul.
Use Excel: Regardless of unit type, I use day calculations here. Type =TODAY()+8 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 8 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.

8 working days from today

8 days is Sunday August 04, 2024 or could be Tuesday August 06, 2024 if you only want workdays. This calculation takes 8 days and only adds by the number of workdays in a week. Remember, removing the weekend from our calculation will drastically change our original Sunday August 04, 2024 date.
