Overall, I would say 2016 was a good season. But it wasn't the best ever in my opinion. While we had fails like Karl and Lisa, I would agree that this is the second best season of the 2010's. Hurricane Matthew almost felt like a throwback to older, destructive hurricanes, and it was also a C5. Hurricane Nicole was a nice surprise too, becoming in my opinion the best looking storm of this season. Let's not forget Alex though, which was a very rare January hurricane. Hermine hit Florida too, for the first time since 2005. The fact that all these droughts were ended in the same year gets me thinking: is the era of weak and less destructive storms over? Could we have a better (or worse, depending on how you put it) 2017 season? Well, lets hope 2017 at least makes up for 2011's mountain of failicias.
