Hudson Valley Wine Country - After Irene

Depending on where you were in the Hudson Valley depended on the rainfall from Irene.  We did experience high winds and different parts of the region experienced a various amount of rainfall.  The western part of the Hudson Valley experienced the most rainfall and damage.

Palaia Vineyards was hit the hardest from what I can tell.  They are located by the Thruway Interchange in Harriman, where the Thruway, Rt 17, Woodbury Commons all comes together.

I haven't heard or seen other damaging reports, but will report on them as I am made aware of them.
