     NWS is headlining the potential for heavy rain, etc. even on the local 
forecasts down here in Arizona.  NOAA/NHC also shows a left turn in the track 
of Sandy which is getting tighter with each forecast update.  The 1100 EDT 
forecast shows Sandy as making landfall on the Jersey coast as a strong 
tropical storm.  The previous plot (0800 EDT) had landfall towards the east end 
of Long Island.  This is a significant change.
