I played golf with my parents in Lake Geneva. They were swarming the Vette on the way up there and were so loud near the golf course and by my parent's house. At least I have something to blame my lousy game on.

I thought everyone was making this whole cicada thing up.

I took a ride on the Wideglide yesterday through the south burbs to Tinley. Going through the Glenwood, Homewood area the Cicada's were louder than the drag pipes on the Harley! I ususally cant hear much over the sound of the bike.

I havent heard a single one over here in Ohio yet. Must be only a matter of time

Will be riding the Harley home from work tonight...about a 30 minute ride. Hope none of them spawned up throughout the day

They were all over Rt 53/355 today on my way to work and back. They are so hard that instead of exploding when they hit the car, they just bounce off. I expected to see some fresh bug juice on the car when I got home, but found nothing. Those are some old, tough bugs.

One bounced off my helmet! Sounded like I got hit by a rock. Glad I had the helmet on!

I drove home from work with the top down today and was worried about one of those suckers landing inside the cockpit.

I agree about the Rt 53/I355 area around Lisle/Downers Grove. I hit a few on the ramp from I88 to NB 355. Got home and two big yellow splotches on the lower bumper and fog light. Like I needed an excuse to wash the car on a night like this! Not a single one up in the Arl. Hts. area. Fine by me.

About 100 have bounced of my vette and 70 Dodge Charger the last 48 hours! I live in a older part of Elmhurst and my area is simply infested and my German Shepard is well fed!

We had them back in 2004. They were terrible. I was raking up empty body shells like leaves. The yard had holes all over it from the little critters crawling out. I'm glad we only get them every 17 years like that.
It is kind of neat to see the empty shells stuck on the trees (and anything else they've rested on) We'll have a few this summer, but the "swarm" only happens every 17 years. Something to look forward to in 2021 around here.

Park Ridge/Norridge they are swarming near the forest preserve on East River Rd and Cumberland..very LOUD had to crank the new system up to drown them out.

DPG

yea they are massed in pockets around here. Mostly forest preserves, but around the neighborhoods a block will be swarmed and move another block, there aren't any. My townhouse community is fairly new and have not had a single one yet. Driving through those forest preserves though is a site to see. Dead and dying cicadas all over the road.

I remember hitting all of those things on the way back from Cruise-In V, which i thing was one of the cycle years.

Not a single one out by me. In fact, the first time I've seen or heard them was when visiting a friend in Glen Ellyn this weekend.
