Cicadas

Going into this spring and summer, we were expecting a lot of bugs. But not the kind that I've noticed everywhere this year.

A couple of months ago we were being warned of a deafening cacophony from the impending 17 year cicada invasion. So far, the only thing deafening in Ocean County is the silence.

New Jersey's invasion of the 17-year cicada has been delayed by the recent rain and cooler temperatures, but the weather today and over the weekend may be exactly what these red-eyed critters need to make their grand entrance.

This Spring, a good chunk of the East Coast is going to be overrun by billions of teenagers.
