The 2016 Atlantic Hurricane Season was a hyperactive Atlantic Hurricane Season that produced 21 named storms, second all-time to 2005, and the first Category 5 Atlantic Hurricane since Felix in 2007. The season began on June 2 with the formation of Tropical Storm Alex. The season's extreme activity was attributed to a strong developing La Niña event, which followed the Very Strong El Niño of 2015-16 that limited Atlantic tropical cyclone formation. Ending a drought of Atlantic tropical activity, the season included 10 hurricanes and 5 major hurricanes.
