No. The count leaves out today and includes Columbus Day itself. The day before, it shows 1 day. On Columbus Day, it shows 0 days.
Which time zone does the count use?
Your device's time zone, named on the Today line at the top of the page. Choose another time zone in the form to count to midnight there instead.
