2016 Atlantic Hurricane Season (Requested by Nkechinyer)

The 2016 Atlantic hurricane season was an active season that took place between June 1-November 30, 2016. The season featured 22 depressions, 18 named storms, 12 hurricanes, and seven major hurricanes including 3 storms that easily surpassed C5 status, causing much destruction across the Atlantic. During the course of the season, many of the storms made landfalls in unusual places, including Cape Verde; Venezuela, Nicaragua, Nova Scotia, and Morocco. One storm even made landfall in South Africa as a Category 4 hurricane. Due to these occurrences, the 2016 season was quite unusual and different than a normal season.
