Fun Fact: Because 2026 is not a leap year, February will have 28 days. Since February 1, 2026, falls on a Sunday, the month will contain: 4 Sundays, 4 Mondays, 4 Tuesdays, 4 Wednesdays, 4 Thursdays, 4 Fridays, 4 Saturdays. This happens because 28 days equal exactly four full weeks, so each weekday appears exactly four times.
