More or less... The conditions required are a mid-day low tide on a warm sunny day that permits the mud flats to warm. That triggers the "hatch" which occurs on the incoming tide. So it's related to the moon, but the link is the timing of the tides and weather. Actually, the event can and does occur in cool weather/water, but most people miss it.
