    If you’re in the US between Illinois and Delaware, you’ll mostly hear the Brood X cicada that will be emerging this year after being in the ground since 2004. There will be way too many for scientists to gather information on them all, so they have historically solicited help from the general population. This emergence will be no different.

    These are the states Brood X will emerge in: Delaware, Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Maryland, Michigan, North Carolina, New Jersey, New York (extinct or nearly so), Ohio, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Virginia, West Virginia, and Washington D.C.
