Maximum count per week comparing each year with average of all years

Notes:
  • There must be at least 3 data points (IE a moth has to have been seen for at least three weeks within the year) for a graph to be shown
  • If only the blue line is visible, there were no counts for that week in the year
  • If only the brown line is visible, the blue line (avg all years) is hidden beneath it
  • The blue line is identical in all charts, but the vertical axis may be resized, which alters it's appearance
