A huge cold front just hit my area. I'm looking to wait until the first week of March for my major flights.

I edited the title of this thread to expand its reach. Members from anywhere in the DMV region can now chime in.
Temps are getting to the 80s this week. I’m hoping to find Camponotus flights. I bet you kids already found some.

Nylanderia should have flights in about a week or two.

Camponotus (chromaiodes, nearcticus, pennsylvanicus) likely small flights tonight and larger flights tomorrow night.

Nothing at my light tonight, it’s probably a little too cool for them.

Couldn't find any either, lots of worker activity though.

Getting multiple reports of large termite flights. Camponotus can't be too far behind.

I'm looking at flights tonight, 83 degrees and partly cloudy. Just hoping the storms hold out for a few more hours!
