Mark Your Calendars for April 2024
Prepare yourself, Virginians! In 2024, billions of periodical cicadas from Brood XIX will emerge from the ground, bringing with them an extraordinary spectacle that last occurred in 2021.
These cicadas, known for their unique 13- or 17-year life cycle, will blanket the region in a chorus of piercing sound, leaving an unforgettable mark on the spring landscape.
Experts predict that the epicenter of Brood XIX's emergence will be in the central and northern parts of Virginia, including counties such as Fairfax, Loudoun, and Prince William. However, cicada sightings can be expected throughout the state.
