Simultaneous Cicada Emergence Grips Iowa and Beyond
The buzz of billions of cicadas from two broods appears across Eastern Iowa and the Southeast United States. Brood 13, a 17 year cycle, spans from Eastern Iowa to southern Wisconsin and northern Illinois, while Brood 19, a 13 year cycle, extends from southeastern Iowa into Louisiana. The rare overlap follows soil warming into the mid-60s this spring as residents like Jennifer Horn-Frasier hear the tones echoing on major highways.
