Non-tropical Low Pressure - Looks impressive

It looks impressive in the satellite pictures but it seems to be very far north to get anything tropical or subtropical.

Indeed impressive, but thus far probably mostly cold core. Let watch and see if it can make the transition to fully tropical, or hybrid. It has a chance, that much is for sure though.

Stranger things have happened, but it's over 20C and cooling waters. It won't become tropical.

I'd give it a 8% chance of becoming a tropical low pressure system.

Ack, this sytems is going to replace the sunny and abnormally warm weather here with cold and rainy weather. But it still looks great.

If this turns (sub)tropical, I'm really going to freak out, so it better stay cold-core.

It looked really good at 18Z. Waiting for the 00Z Meteosat-8 image.

This looks like it could bring some nasty weather to Europe.

Is this a European windstorm?
