  I wish there were a way to accurately label subtropical systems. It starts extratropical, but became cut-off, and gained central convection.

  Actually, looking at JMA weather maps it seems like it never had frontal characteristics, but still, would like to see that option.

  Thank you for the comment. Subtropical systems like this are notoriously difficult to classify accurately. Embedded would be closest here

  The intensity algorithm is not designed to handle this kind of pattern, so we have to work around it. Thanks for classifying!
