How this is calculated
We step forward one calendar month at a time from today's date, the 4th, and whatever is left after the last whole month is added as days. Months are never treated as 30 days, since they run from 28 to 31; only the decimal figure divides the days by 30.44, the length of an average month.
These figures were worked out on Wednesday, November 4, 2026, US Eastern time. Your browser redoes them with your own date when the page loads.
