So far you've called this one, R2B. Black Cat has 8.4" snow since 9:30 last night. One of the guys at the NWS just told me there's one more band of snow expected for this area in the next couple hours and then the major accumulation should end.
It'll be a Y1 storm here, plus a whisker-- as you said. You didn't specify whisker "length" or "width" so you get the victory. It's going to be whisker length!
Now, Yuki... if ya wanna be a weathercat, ya gotta set paws in the snow every so often! Put a camouflage sweater and a mini 'Smokey bear' hat on Charlie and have him make Yuki drop and give him 20 in the snow before marching into the Friskies hall!
