How the countdown is calculated
The countdown is the number of calendar days from today to the next Orthodox Easter. If the date has already passed this year, it counts to next year's date. Dates follow the US calendar rule for this event, so they are worked out for each year rather than looked up. All dates use UTC, so close to midnight the date where you are can differ by one day.
Business days skip Saturdays and Sundays but not public holidays, which differ by country. For another date, use the day counter or the date calculator.
