Month-by-month countdown to Thanksgiving 2026

What is left at the start of each month, and how many of the 16 days fall in it. The first row counts from today, November 10, 2026; the others from the 1st.

"Days in this month" counts the days after today up to and including November 26, 2026, so the column adds up to the total.

How the months are counted

We step forward whole calendar months from today, keeping the day of the month, and stop at the last step that does not pass Thanksgiving. The days from there are the leftover days. Today is November 10, 2026. One month from November 10, 2026 would be December 10, 2026, which is past November 26, 2026, so the answer is under a month: 16 days.

When the landing month is too short for the day, we use its last day: January 31 plus one month is February 28, or February 29 in a leap year. So January 31 to March 1 is 1 month and 1 day. Each step is measured from today, so January 31 plus two months is March 31. Months have 28 to 31 days, so a month here is a calendar count, not a fixed number of days.

The weeks figure is simply the total days divided by 7, with the remainder as days.
