The 00Z (8PM EDT)
runs of the major global models have really consolidated not only on a target area but on a target time. Up until now they were pretty divergent on landfall time. Now all of them have somewhere just south of New York City near 8PM on Monday evening (2012-10-30 00z). That is the worst possible outcome for the Jersey shore, NYC and Long Island as far as coastal surge damage is concerned, especially due to the long period of onshore winds and rising water that will occur before Sandy gets onshore. Just terrible if this plays out.
