According to Hudson Valley Weather, Saturday brought rain to the region, but not quite as much rain as what was initially predicted. It may seem a little hard to believe if you're living in areas in the eastern part of the Hudson Valley, though other areas to the west didn't get nearly as much rainfall over the weekend.
