- Today Was vs Today Is - English Language Usage Stack Exchange
Today means "the current day", so if you're asking what day of the week it is, it can only be in present tense, since it's still that day for the whole 24 hours In other contexts, it's okay to say, for example, "Today has been a nice day" nearer the end of the day, when the events that made it a nice day are finished (or at least, nearly so)
- Is it proper grammar to say on today and on tomorrow?

- On Saturday afternoon or in the Saturday afternoon?
The choice of prepositions depends upon the temporal context in which you're speaking "On ~ afternoon" implies that the afternoon is a single point in time; thus, that temporal context would take the entire afternoon as one of several different afternoons, or in other words, one would use "on" when speaking within the context of an entire week
