Verbatim, that smells of pingers to me. Notice how the sounding kisses the 00z line for about 100mb. If vvs are through the roof it may be an isothermal snow sounding, but anytime I see those soundings I think some IP mixed.

 

Of course the NAM could be too warm because it's too far west which changes things.

Likely snow with some sleet maybe mixing in. Nearly saturated all the way to 250mb and look at the sfc wind direction, NE, maybe more like NNE. 850mb winds are also north of east. That tells me that temps at that level and below are rapidly cooling.
