Re: Nicole

I think that you may have missed the intent of the question. Of course there have been Subtropical Storms that have transformed into Tropical Storms or Hurricanes...but:
1. Has there ever been a Subtropical Hurricane?
2. Is it even possible to have one?

The answer is not just the research - my real intent is to make you think about the meteorology.
Cheers,
