On February 1, 2017, the NOAA National Hurricane Center's Tropical Cyclone Report upgraded Otto to a major hurricane. To reflect this change, the Atlantic storm totals have been updated to 15 named storms, 7 hurricanes and 4 major hurricanes. On November 30, 2016, the Eastern Pacific storm totals were updated to 21 named storms, 11 hurricanes and 5 major hurricanes.
As the Atlantic, eastern Pacific and central Pacific 2016 hurricane seasons end today, NOAA scientists said that all three regions saw above-normal seasons.
