ravensrule Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 Really? I thought the 2004 brood was the bigger one around here. I guess it depends on the specific area/county. Yes you are right after further research, it will be smaller than 2004. Either way it is still annoying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clueless Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 there are 12 broods of 17 year cicadas, and 3 of 13 year ones. this year's brood will be on a much smaller scale than 2004. this Brood II:http://www.magicicada.org/about/brood_pages/broodII.php 76 here. Thank you. Not looking forward to it this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Chill Posted April 8, 2013 Share Posted April 8, 2013 Cicadas are pretty fun actually. You can tie a piece of thread to one of their legs and fly them around like a kite. Or grab 2 of the noise making ones by their wings and walk up behind people and stick them next to their ears. My wife loves this and the bruises are totally worth the laugh. Sticking a couple of the empty shells on the back of a friend's shirt has it's moments. I remember the big brood in 87. I collected a few hundred live ones and put them in my roommate's bedroom while he was sleeping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snowfan Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 The wife just asked if she could turn the AC on. That question was answered with an emphatic NO! She got the idea because our neighbor decided to turn his on this afternoon. Open the damn windows and air the house out for the first time in 5 months. When he have lows in the u30s/l40s this weekend she'll be begging for heat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowfan Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 A good portion of Colorado is currently under WSWs and/or Blizzard warnings. On top of that, there are currently three tornado warnings in the NE portion of the state. Crazy weather. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RIC Airport Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 A couple points to note for RIC. The high temperature yesterday was 81 degrees. This is the lastest first 75 degree day since 1965 when this did not occur until April 12th. It was also the latest 80 degree day since 1993. A record high is possible for Wednesday.

mappy Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 Too warm last night. Windows open and it was muggy in my house all night. My son had trouble sleeping. Ugh... My allergies are killing me, so much so that we haven't opened the windows so I won't feel worse than I already do. The baby girl came home from daycare yesterday with a runny nose, poor thing. Beautiful morning though. The heat is still on here at work, so I have finally had to open my window to allow cooler air in. Very thankful I am one of the few in my cube world office that actually has a window that can be opened. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But on Sunday we were down in DC to see the cherry blossoms and my nose was killing me and my wife has been very uncomfortable the last 2 days back in Columbia (although I'm fine at home). Trees are definitely popping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snownut Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 Really enjoy the greening time of year but quickly dry around here. Do not like rapid switch to heat. Honestly, I hate summers around here. What is spring? I guess it will be a few days this weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mrs.J Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 I have had a sinus headache for a week now. Probably the worst its been for me in years. I was there last week, hence why we are not opening up either. Ran the ceiling fans we had put up on the top two levels of the house to work. They did great last night and kept it cool enough. My BYS is at 67 and it is not even 8:30 yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Went from a pleasant sleeping temperature of around 64/65 in our bedroom to an unpleasant 74 in two days. Slept like crap. A/C goes on soon.

Honestly, I hate summers around here. What is spring? I guess it will be a few days this weekend. It seems like we've gotten to the point where getting a "normal" spring day like last Sunday (high's in the 60's, lows in the 40's) is nearly impossible. Seems like it only happens a few times a season. As soon as the warm up comes its straight to 80+ highs, 60+ lows, and record high challenges.

Bob Chill Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 Large + and - temp deviations are "normal" for spring. It's probably the most volatile season irt temps. I don't think it's possible to have a stretch of "normal" temps more than a couple days for the vast majority of the season. Gets easier during the last month but April is always crazy.
