SNOW DAY

ANN ARBOR – Remember snow days? In a time when students remain in virtual classrooms, a snow day might not be as glamorous as it once was. Still, students in Ann Arbor Public Schools are in luck because Superintendent Dr. Jeanice Kerr Swift has declared Tuesday a snow day. Snow totals from the overnight storm are expected to exceed half a foot across Southeast Michigan, with some areas getting up to 10 inches. Those sledding hills might get busy.

Busch Beer announced Monday that it is bringing back its Snow Day campaign, which gives beer fans in seven of the snowiest states across America $1 off Busch for every inch of snowfall this winter. Michigan’s discount will be based on snowfall in Grand Rapids between Jan. 1 and the first day of Spring, March 20. It is one of 31 states where snowfall totals will be tracked to earn residents free beer. For every inch of snow that adds up in your area, we’re taking $1 off your Busch (up to $15).
