Cue the Locusts Please!

First it was massive tornado outbreak, now they are enduring a flood of epic proportions, plus the New Madrid fault is shaking and could break wide open any day.....as if that isn't enough, now they are preparing for a locust hatch that only happens once every 13 years....and this is the year it will happen!

After a 13-year nap, cicadas are waking up in the South, and with them comes an ear-splitting mating call that will soon fill the air across the southern U.S.

The 13-year cicadas of what is known as Brood XIX (the 19th brood) have been living underground since 1998. That was the last time they held their famous two-month, above-ground mating frenzy.

Brood XIX, also known as the Great Southern Brood, is the country's largest group of 13-year cicadas, stretching across 12 states, including Missouri, South Carolina, Oklahoma and Illinois. Already rising in some parts of Georgia, they should all be hatched by mid-May.

According to the article these locusts don't eat everything in sight, they just make a tremendous amount of non-stop noise.  Some people liken the deafening noise to the sound of a tornado!
 
As I was reading this article thinking of the poor, devastaed southern states...it crossed my mind that the locusts might be screaming at the top of their lungs, "Wake up everybody!  Get on the ark of the Lord before the door seals shut!"
