Note that if trans_date is actually a date, you are much better off just
adding an integer to it: SELECT EXTRACT(WEEK FROM trans_date + 1)
If you add an interval then the date will be promoted to a timestamp,
and all of a sudden you have possible issues with funny behavior at
DST boundaries.
I think since 7.3 the DST issue is only serious if trans_date is
actually stored as timestamp with time zone, but it has been able to
bite you in the past.
