Rather than rely on their own forecasting system—upgraded in recent weeks—the federal experts placed their faith instead on a well-regarded European computer model that predicted the worst of this storm would squarely hit New York City. That system earlier had outperformed the U.S. forecasting system in predicting the path of superstorm Sandy.The Euro model had been doing much better than the GFS(US) model for years. That why they went with the Euro.

Correct, but we never hear about all the times the Euro model was correct and the US models missed badly...

GFS has not done too well since it was upgraded a year or two ago, at least not for tropical storms. Euro was better.
