I think it’s a similar phenomenon with ticks too! though if I recall it needs to be under 15 for a few days at least. Hell if ticks and lantern flies are dying I’m all for this weather truthfully lol. Time to bundle up

Probably wouldn't be the only things dying unfortunately.

That's true. Plus my heart always goes out a little extra to the homeless in these kinds of temps

Especially in places where people have been raiding their camps just before this storm. Super cruel and inhumane.

Forecast: unlikely. It's climbing back to 16 here in Hunterdon today, low 12 tonight, then slowly climbing throughout the week.

One can dream, but these bugs have all survived before, and we'll see them again in the spring, I'm sure.

Yeah, I figured it wouldn’t be this cold too long anyway. It’s quite rare these days for it to drop this much here
