Re: Subtropical Depression #17 Forms Northeast of Caribbean

Tropical depression/ storm is typically warm core with highest winds near the center.
Subtropical depression/ storm is typically cold core with highest winds located away from the center.

That is the way that I define them. I am sure that someone has a better explanation.
