The moth drought is over?

Hello all.
After 17 days and 6 trapping efforts and catching nothing but flies, finally this morning I was greeted by three moths to the Actinic.
I had been alternating between the MV and the Actinic tube just to see if it made a difference. The last two nights were very mild but ridiculously windy, and I can only assume that the wind easing overnight made the moths venture out.
The drought is over but we are about to get a cold blast so the trap will be off this week I presume.
