I think this will probably be cold core if it does evolve. Unless of course we have a repeat of the May 6 2005 noreaster which many mets now agree might have been subtropical.

It will be cold core because the sst's are way to cold.

Yes, it's cold-core.

The GFS hasbeen showing this low off Hatteras for quite a few runs now, but the 18Z run today is way more bullish on it than earlier runs.

Lets see if it keeps on with this trend in tomorrow's runs or if it flops back to a weaker system.

I think if something like that stayed over the gulf stream, it would become sub-tropical at best

Just a cold-core frontal low, a "Nor'Easter". Nothing tropical about it.
