replies: text: I'll have to look up if Meteo France actually maintains a database which includes STs.  Their real-time advisories tackle the subject.  The problem is, I haven't uncovered any subtropical cyclone-related research that was centered on a basin other than the North Atlantic.  Thegreatdr (talk) 21:38, 28 February 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: I just checked their website.  Even though everything is in french, it does not appear that they have their database online.  A preliminary search for South Indian STs has come up blank, but I'll keep looking.  Thegreatdr (talk) 22:11, 28 February 2009 (UTC)

replies: text: Great, I'm happy about that. Do you think it's worth mentioning that hybrid systems occur east of Australia, for example, but aren't warned upon? Likewise with SATL cyclones. --♬♩ Hurricanehink (talk) 01:20, 1 March 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: I'm not sure that's true.  The definition of a tropical cyclone in the southern Pacific does not include warm core...it merely states that the cyclone be synoptic in scale with no frontal boundaries into the center, i.e. not extratropical.  Their definition could encompass the ST category...which I think Nadi has warned upon in the past, but Brisbane has not.  The 2008 operations plan is open to interpretation...I think it would be considered original research if I included that STs did have advisories near Australia, without the appropriate reference.  The WMO document is not enough support, so it seems.  Thegreatdr (talk) 01:24, 1 March 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Hmm, I seem to remember reading something by Gary Padgett that ST's weren't warned by Australia, that Hybrids regularly occurred along the east coast but they didn't get warnings... something like that. I'm really not sure, though. --♬♩ Hurricanehink (talk) 01:42, 1 March 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: That was true through 2001, but they recently relaxed the definition to be fairly inclusive, so systems like the March 2001 ST could be warned upon.  They wouldn't necessarily be called subtropical, however.  This is where the problem lies.  Thegreatdr (talk) 04:31, 1 March 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Oh, I see. Well, I guess the easiest scenario is just to not mention it, at least until (or if) you find a source that is clearer. --♬♩ Hurricanehink (talk) 04:44, 1 March 2009 (UTC)
thread_title: Todo

message: I'm in favor of leaving both historical types of subtropical cyclones in this article, even though the definition of subtropical cyclone was just changed this past year.  Despite the agreed upon change this past spring, it has yet to make the TPC website.  Thegreatdr 18:40, 10 October 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Once someone adds info about regional names, someone should talk about Kona Lows... Titoxd(?!?) 02:16, 25 October 2006 (UTC)
replies: text:  Konas are interesting since some are subtropical cyclones.  Many are just occluded cyclones that bring Hawaii rainfall within their trailing cold/stationary frontal boundary. Thegreatdr 19:29, 9 November 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Sources being added

message: I removed the sentence about Andrea from the history section. This storm forming doesn't contribute anything to the history of storms being classified as subtropical; aside from it forming in May, there's nothing else special about it that isn't covered by one of the existing examples. --Coredesat 05:56, 10 May 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Andrea 

message: The article says, "However, when he began issuing public statements during the 1972 Atlantic hurricane season with the term 'neutercane', newspapers protested the term was "sexist". "
I have a feeling that this is a modern spin. The term sounded like a bad pun, that's for sure (like the bad puns about himmicanes that circulated in 1978 when they started using male names for tropical cyclones), and "neutercane" was only used in 1972. But there do not seem to be any news articles or other primary sources from 1972 or any nearby dates calling this term "sexist" (see google news archive and google books). Rather, this story seems to have emerged after the year 2000. Does anyone have an actual source from the period saying that the term was considered sexist, and that this is why it was dropped? Or did it just have too much "giggle factor" as a bad pun?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.148.18.151 (talk) 03:47, 20 September 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: There haven't been any replies with confirmation so I am going to to try to re-work the text of the article. Just to reiterate, newspaper reports from the early 1970s did not call this term sexist. Stories to that effect emerged sometime after the year 2000.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.148.18.151 (talk) 02:55, 3 October 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  neutercane sexist? 

message: An editor replaced the Andrea image with one of Otto in 2010, which would normally be fine.  However, the image was one of Otto in its tropical phase.  If you are going to replace the main image, please make sure the system is in its subtropical phase.  Thank you.  Thegreatdr (talk) 22:20, 17 October 2010 (UTC)
