Default How to Highlight the date if it is within 3 months from now

Your formula in conditional formatting could be (where D2 is cell with the
date):
=IF(DATEDIF(TODAY()+1,D2,"m")<3,TRUE,FALSE)

This method, as opposed to adding 90 days will highlight anything that is
within 3 calendar months. If run today is Nov 25, it will highlight every
date from Nov 26 to Feb 25. The 90 day method will highlight up to Feb 23.

I am working with a spreadsheet having to do with various training my staff
must have. Some of the certificates expire after a few years, and I wanted
to enter a function so that a cell is highlighted when it is within 3 months
from expiring, so that I will know to schedule a new training session. I
tried using the Conditional Formatting option, but wasn't sure what formula
to write. Help!
