The National Weather Service reported the unusual appearance of insect swarms across the city's North Shore and south shore on May 29, NOLA.com reported.
 
Meteorologists noticed the activity earlier this evening and "are pretty sure" it represents insect swarms based on the time of the day that it occurred, meteorologist Alek Krautmann told NOLA.
