Lots of melting snow, slow toilets?

We have a septic system and this years tons of snow which is just now melting (rapidly). Both toilets are very slow to drain (low "suction"). Can this be due to the amount of water in the weeping field? Is there anything we can do to solve this?

Sounds logical to me. Minimize water use to the max until the snow melts and the ground has a chance to dry up a little.
