Cicadas return to Tennessee: Track Brood XIX using this interactive map
Brood XIX, a 17-year cicada brood, is expected to emerge in Tennessee in mid-May
The Brood XIX cicadas are coming back to Tennessee! This brood of periodical cicadas emerges every 17 years, and the next emergence is expected to begin in mid-May 2024. The cicadas will be most active in the eastern half of the state, and they are expected to be present for about six weeks.
Use this interactive map to track the emergence of Brood XIX in Tennessee
The University of Connecticut has created an interactive map that shows the predicted emergence of Brood XIX cicadas in Tennessee. The map is based on data from previous emergence events, and it can be used to track the progress of the cicadas as they emerge from the ground. To use the map, simply enter your zip code or city, and the map will show you the predicted emergence dates for your area.
Cicadas are harmless to humans and pets, but they can be a nuisance because of their loud鸣叫声. If you are planning to be outdoors during the cicada emergence, be sure to wear earplugs or headphones to protect your hearing.
