How is this countdown calculated?
It counts the difference between calendar dates, rather than complete 24-hour periods. The initial reference is UTC; choose “My local date” to use the date on your device. It refreshes while this page is open.
This countdown uses the published date for this occurrence. A future year is not guessed when the date passes.
