He will be making his debut performance in the beloved holiday classic play: A Christmas Carol, which premiers Friday night.
“I’m really excited about it. It’s an ensemble role. I get to sing,” Yanez told our Zach Lashway on KPRC 2+ Now . “So I actually have my sheet music here. And so I’m in the beginning and the ending scene. And so I’ll be singing on stage in the first act at the very beginning and then at the very end when, of course, it’s snow. So, as a meteorologist, I’m excited about that.”
Send us photos of your holiday decorations through our Click2Pins!
