2024 cicada map: Check out where Broods XIII, XIX are projected to emerge The two cicada broods are projected to emerge in a combined 17 states across the South and Midwest.
Map of periodic cicada broods with Brood X shown in yellow. Every 17 years, Brood X cicada nymphs tunnel upwards en masse to emerge from the surface of the ground. The insects then shed their exoskeletons on trees and other surfaces, thus becoming adults. The mature cicadas fly, mate, lay eggs in twigs, and then

cicada map. The insects start to emerge when the soil beneath the ground layer reaches 64 degrees, ... These cicadas have a 17-year life cycle, so we haven’t spent time with this brood since 2008.
Brood XIX (also known as The Great Southern Brood) is the largest (most widely distributed) brood of 13-year periodical cicadas, last seen in 2024 across a wide stretch of the southeastern United States.
