Fridays are the most common payday and the usual end of the working week, so counting them is a practical way to plan spending or workload before a deadline.

How the count is worked out

Counting starts from tomorrow, not today, and includes St Patrick's Day itself if it lands on a Friday. That matters most when the event is close: a difference of one day at the start can change the total by a whole Friday. Because weekdays repeat every seven days, the count is roughly the number of days remaining divided by seven, then rounded up or down depending on which weekday today is. Today is a Tuesday, and St Patrick's Day falls on a Wednesday.

Fridays until St Patrick's Day in future years

The figure changes every year, because both the starting date and the weekday St Patrick's Day falls on shift. Counted from the same point each year:

Fridays by month

How the remaining fridays spread across the calendar between now and St Patrick's Day:

Most months contain four of any given weekday, and some contain five. A month has five of a weekday whenever its length runs past the fourth occurrence, which is why the totals above are not evenly spread.
