Ohio's Yanni the Yeti Sees Shadow - 2 More Months of Summer Weather
The legendary Yeti was spotted at Edgewater Beach beneath a small shrub. After making his brief appearance he exclaimed,
"This heat is _____ ridiculous!" and proceeded to jump in a cooler left behind by some picnickers. After
an icy bath and a few cold beverages he promised to several passersby that "I could be the best yeti you've
ever had" which we hope means a good winter season is ahead. Even more promising are the forecasts emerging for
the upcoming Winter season. The Accuweather forecast is here.
