      Literally climate change.

      https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC7068582/

      Weather has a big impact on mosquito numbers & feeding behavior:

      • Cooler temperatures = more mosquitoes
      • Higher humidity = more mosquitoes
      • More rainfall = more mosquitoes (for some species)

      Climate is moving north, thus your area is likely getting wetter and more humid.

          You might want to check that, the cool factor has been measured across several studies as per my links. ;) They have pretty concrete temperature boundaries.

          I’m in the swampy part of VA, around where we literally lost colonies to mosquitoes. I’m also a mosquito magnet, where most people don’t even get bit if I’m outside with them, but they’re all over me. It’s great…
