The Internet Archive, the HTTP time machine that records the history of World Wide Web, is planning to create a backup in Canada because of the uncertainty of the policies of a Trump administration.

It’s Over
This has been a very long season kicked off by what became Hurricane Alex on January 12th and ended with Otto on November 26th. There were 16 tropical systems and 15 of them earned names. Of the named storms, 7 became hurricanes with 3 making major hurricane status. Hurricane Matthew was Category 5 with 160 mph sustained winds at one point.
Things have changed and weird is the new normal for tropical weather.
