Definitley one of those quality over quantity years
back on topic this is starting to really get the frontal look based on being connected to the trough but also seems to be getting more convection around the center

I'd reverse that; quantity over quality.

I wonder what is allowing storms to get more intense than their satellite signature?

Convection has wrapped almost all the way around the center for the first time.

Looks like the recon finds stronger winds also, if I'm not mistaken.

I would hazard to guess that the higher winds found in Cristobal have alot to do with pressure gradients with higher pressures on each side. Shear is high all around the storm, and is likely why it still looks like part of a frontal system. As soon as it gets a shot of baroclinic energy it should take off as an extratropical system.

The structure still seems, and looks, subtropical to me.

Latent energy from untapped SST's would be my guess. Climatology. Like having a category 3 or 4 system that averages out to a category 1 after all the negatives are added in.

Cristobal is wrapping and heading NNE.

I agree. This looks like a subtropical system. That is one huge trof extending into the straits and into the GOM. I wonder what the wind radii are; It has been windy down here in Miami (more than average anyways) I suspect that wind swath is fairly large.
