Birds~69

Yeah, nothing here either...I was just being a smartass. However, I'd rather bust on critters than a big ass snowstorm. No memory of 1994 either. Times are different now, media (social media) like to super overhype trivial things now. And local news...ratings, ratings...Glenn hasn't really mentioned cicadas in recent days. Do you, Redsky or anyone w/age remember the Japanese Beetle infestation in the late 70s or so? Those F'ers were everywhere! People had those Bag a Bug things hanging all over the place, front/back lawn and they would be full...

Maybe the crunch is from the massive amount of cicada shells? Hanging at 65F...

65F / DP 45F at 1:30pm. Rather dark clouds around and temps have not moved much. Memorial day weekend (Fri-Sun) looks like temps around 70F (Sat 60s) clouds/sun and a chance of a shower(s)...Memorial day itself temps in the 70s w/more sun. Probably see some overnight temps in the 40s...

61F / DP 45F /Cloudy w/a breeze at 6:45am. Feels great...

Ok, camped there one time, I know where that is...damn close to Knockamixon. I went to shooting range up there as well which I think closed... 79F...A/C going off soon.

I really may make a trip up that way, haven't been up around Nockamixon in years. I'm 90% convinced I'll get screwed around this area with very limited critters. Looking forward to clouds and 60s tomorrow... 86F

It was 73F here at 2am early this morning and I doubt I dropped into the 60s. I see Philly hanging around 70/low70s tomorrow w/burbs in the upper 60s....great stuff. A/C goes off once it gets dark around here tonight...expected low upper 50s to 60F. 87F

Eeked to 90F / DP 63F.....wind still active and no critters to be seen or heard.

89F / DP 61F

No question. I was outside for the past several hours and just came in to watch the Sixers at 1pm...more than breezy, borderline windy at times. Wasn't expecting this? 88F / DP 60F / RH 39%

Already 80F / DP 60F at 9am so this will probably be the hottest/most uncomfortable day so far. Back door cold front swings through w/highs in the upper 60s for the burbs on Monday...my kind of weather.

Incoming...plague!

No stink bugs and limited flies, bees and Gnats (they''ll come though) as well. Butterflies seem to be on the decline every year... 83F

Just skimming the MA subforum for the first time in months. They are way ahead of us in the cicada sightings, especially MD. Hell, I'll be happy just seeing or hearing one in the distance. All we have is KamuSnow seeing a lonely lightning bug last night... 86F

It's somewhat hot (89F) but it's really not sticky. (DP 57F / RH 34%) I think we're so accustomed to super dry conditions lately a 57F DP seems uncomfortable. I would lock that DP in for the entire summer w/a big smile on my face. Tomorrow DPs will be in low-mid 60s, still not super horrible but getting there. When DPs are in the 70s...instant puddle if you step outside.

Wow, that's really early. (5/21) I don't expect to see any till mid/late June when things start to roast on a consistent basis... 69F

I'm pretty convince our soil temps are warm enough for the cicadas but damn it's dry. A solid rain event and they would be popping out of the ground... 86F / DP 49F /Hum 28%

My soil temp is 65F. Those lazy critters should start making their move. Lack of rain isn't helping. Imagine being underground for 17yrs trying to break the surface looking to get laid and met by a brick wall of dry dirt/clay. Poor critters... https://www.greencastonline.com/tools/soil-temperature

Sunday will be our first real taste of summer w/temps 90F+ and more humid. Glenn going with 96F next Wed....

No harm man, not a problem. Diesel cars seem to be way more popular in Europe and not in the States. Haven't looked up any stats just a observation...

Otherwise, do they just hang underground and wait? The next 10 day+ look pretty much dry....spotty stuff maybe. 72F

Glenn going with 92F/humid Sunday and "yes" a walk in refrigerator/house is nice. Sunday may be my next lawn mowing day, have a beer outside afterwards then head indoors... 72F

Yeah, this is a head scratcher. I didn't even know anything about this? I have a feeling this Cicada thing will pass by without anyone really noticing much like 17 years ago when I didn't notice any difference. Nutjob inside me would like to see a plague of cicadas but I'm not seeing it...

I'll give it a whirl. Thankfully by June or so things ease off a bit...

Have not, will look into it. I tried a lot of meds. Either work somewhat but make me stupid (in a daze) or tired. Some work w/congestion but my eyes are a mess and I look drunk/stoned. Some help w/my eyes but I go into a sneezing fit. Had to walk out of Wawa because I kept on sneezing and people around me weren't too pleased. A/C on today feels great though...no sneezing, itchy red eyes, congestion....bring on Fall!
