I'm not where the cicadas are. I'm just reading about them,
everywhere from the Weather Channel website to
the Chicago Tribune.

They are turning up in the trees now.

According to the Chicago Tribune,
the emergence in the Chicago / Northern Illinois area will be smaller
than the expected large emergence in Southern Illinois.

The state of Illinois is where two separate broods intersect
and both are emerging now.

Missouri is another state that should see many cicadas.
