I really think the models were better 20 years ago. What happen?! What were those short range models? The Suny NMM , I forget but they were spot on... 

They weren't better. People forget the massive shift within 48 hrs for the 12/26/10 blizzard for example. I thought that one was lost OTS.

It got worse snowfall wise. 3k might've been better but snowmaps aren't loading

So the 12k flipped to sleet quicker but the sleet line did not get as far north which is a step in the right direction. We need 1 more tick like that.

We need the snow shield to be heavier/steadier. In 3 hours that NAM run surged the sleet line from Wilmington DE to Staten Island. The heavy precip is when it's sleeting. It would be varying snow rates for a few hours then all out sleetstorm for 60-70% of the precip that falls.

I'm not buying freezing rain vs snow, theres going to be a lot of sleet in between. 

Almost all of the guidance, including the NAM have the 875 mb layer down to the surface well below freezing. That would produce sleet. Some freezing drizzle can't be ruled out at some point, but the steady precipitation following the changeover from snow should be sleet.
