They’re (almost) here! The cicadas are coming | The Sideshow - Yahoo! News: "It’s not a welcomed reunion, but after 17 years the cicadas are set to return to the East Coast.
Insect experts say that starting in mid April to late May, residents from North Carolina to New England will witness the emergence of billions upon billions of the singing insects. For them to emerge, the ground has to be a mild 64 degrees, notes retired Smithsonian entomologist Gary F. Hevel. That's how, even eight inches below ground, the insects know, "It's party time."
