I am wondering if anyone else in this country / world has the same problem with these annoying things?
Yep, we occasionally see the exact same thing. Exact same timing/scenario - cool spell followed by a warm, sunny day - they come out in droves. Must be timed to a cyclical/hatching stimulus or something.
