Busier or Quieter means 20% or more away from typical. School breaks, games and bank holidays are markers, not yet adjusted for.

Weekday pattern: when school is out, weekdays run closer to weekends

School in session69%

K-12 break weeks83%

Summer86%

Average weekday sales as a share of average weekend-day sales, median across weeks since 2023. The forecast already carries this because it starts from last year's same weekday. NFL Sundays run about 4% lower against Saturdays than in the off-season; a lunch effect is not proven yet.
