Ya know, I have noticed this(I live in Texas). There's a plethora of tiny flying insects (like gnats) and, to a lesser extent, spiders, but where's everything else? My pitcher plants are hungry!
that's cuz we haven't had any fricckin' rain in like forever....except once or twice a few weeks back if I remember correctly. Yea sure we keep getting thunder and lightning and gray skies, but no torrential downpour. I'm in the Sugar Land area and i was thrilled couple of days ago when they announced "Severe thunderstorm warning to Fort Bend County." Yea it howled and blew but no rain. What a tease.
