Models are starting to agree that the low will redevelop around southern NJ instead of just above NYC, meaning that the chance for snow and freezing rain will still remain on Sunday night into Monday. The EURO/NAM both show this and call for low temps on Sunday night to be 26-28° with Monday highs only reaching 29-30° maybe 31° locally, but the GFS is still calling for Sunday night lows to be 28-30° with Monday highs reaching all the way up to 33°.
The problem is that the GFS is still places the low in south-central NJ so the temperature readings should be 1-2° lower in line with the EURO/NAM so it may be in the middle of correcting itself. Tonight's run or possibly tomorrow's run should help with consolidating all the data.
As it stands, the more south you go the greater chance of seeing rain on Monday vs. mixed precip, however again 5-10 miles with this storm north could mean more rain and 5-10 miles south could mean more snow and freezing rain. More certainty will come tomorrow.
Today into tonight and Sunday the precip will stay mostly north but there's still a slight chance of a passing rain shower, or snow shower mixed in if you're on LI.

As for now, the current surface map is deceiptively quiet. There's light flurries ahead of the front, but they should dissolve by the time they reach NYC and even moreso towards Long Island.
