Yep 18Z NAM has heavier precip in this run with temps for most of the area in the mid to low 30s.Looking at the soundings it has a small pocket of subfreezing air just above the surface (which is a sleet profile) Its close to showing an all sleet storm.

Yes it eventually brings some sleet to the coast, but in this range i wouldn't pay too much attention to precip type and placement until atleast within 48 hours.Just the fact that it shows this setup is more important in this range.

Less 18z GEFS members showed winter precip, and it also ran about 4 to 8 degrees warmer on Friday. We’ll see if this is a trend or just one run.

Or better yet, place it as "Do not trust" Category.
