Are you suggesting that this was a tropical storm or was it actually tropical and you're posting images of it? If it's the former, than I'd be extremely hesitant to say that you can tell it's fully warm-core and tropical by looking at a few relatively small full-disk IR images.

I'm saying that it is showing many of the signs of turning from extratropical to tropcial. At least what I'v seen over the north Atlantic over the last years.

Or may be more subtropical than really tropical.

I believe the widely accepted word is that it was tropical.
