Updated 6:08 AM;
Whether you anticipate the upcoming song of the soon-to-emerge 17-year periodical cicada as the melody of a massive natural event or a buzzing drone that will disrupt your enjoyment of the outdoors, the sound itself is just days away.
After the billions of Brood X cicadas finally begin to emerge, which will be any day now, it will be another 5 days or so until the males start singing to attract mates.
And when they begin vibrating their tymbals – rigid, drum-like membranes on the male insect’s abdomen - they will be delivering a noise level of 85 to 90 decibels and even more.

The event will run from 4 to 7 p.m. Wednesday, May 19, with new book signings by authors Lister, Terry Lewis, Pat Sabiston, Jayson Kretzer and Tony Simmons; a CD debut from Aaron Bearden; and live musical performances by Bearden, Lister and Denise Denaro. The evening is free and open to the public. Floriopolis is at 1131 Beck Ave. in Panama City.
Lister will present his newest novel, Out for Blood, the latest installment in the ongoing John Jordan Mystery series, as well as A Dark Radiant Rain, which launched a new series for him earlier this year. Lister said of the former, It not only has more twists and turns but more gut-wrenching emotion and meaningful stakes than any John Jordan title in a long time maybe ever.
