ISO weeks run Monday to Sunday, and week 1 is the week with the first Thursday of the year, so the first days of January can still belong to the last week of the old year. Weekdays are Monday to Friday; public holidays are not taken out here, the business days figure above does that.

How the date is counted

Today is day zero, so the count starts tomorrow. Every day counts, weekends and holidays included. The business days figure above is the stricter version: it skips Saturdays, Sundays and US federal holidays, so 5 business days reach about 7 calendar days or more into the future.

Need the week number of the result for a planner or a sprint board? The week number tool shows it. For a live countdown to the date, open the countdown timer.

Counting in hours instead of days? The hour pages show the clock time, for example 72 hours from now.
