Swarms of midges in Northeast Ohio detected on weather radar WEWS: Jessica Fox, professor of biology, discussed the annual invasion of midges—the tiny mosquito-like flies—on the shores of Lake Erie. The swarms can even be seen on weather radar. “These clouds of midges only last a little while, but you can see midges throughout the summertime and we’ll see the clouds again in the fall when the lake cools down to the same temperature,” said Fox. |
