We have had harsher Winters in the past but the rainfall this Winter was unprecedented.    The ground has been so saturated that it was only last week that I was able to mow the lawn for the first time this year.
I've noticed that the winds are much stronger now and more frequent and have wrecked the Daffodils  that are in pots, luckily the ones planted in the ground have survived
