Two thoughts...

(1) Here in New England, we have noticed that if there is a football
game on, activity will be way down.

(2) If there's some rovers in your area, they will help generate
activity.  You can work a rover every time it enters a new grid.  If
there's going to be one or two within range for you, there will be
periods throughout the day where you can grab some more contacts.  More
rovers and more bands will make that period longer.
