They will recover but it will cost you some yield in the long run. Try to get any limbs and leaves off of the ground if you can. Any leaves that lay on the ground will die. In about a week you can pick off the dead and damage leaves that won't recover. Dead and yellowing leaves tend to attract bugs.
 
Thank you very much got alot of leaves to pick up but I was really worried I would lose it all gonna get some 50 gallon trash cans and some fence posts so next time i can slide the trash cans over them until the storm is over. Can't get caught with my pants down again

Maybe look into a hoop house or a green house kit. You'd be surprised how cheap they actually are. If your a decent builder then it's even cheaper.

These plants are very tough. Don't cut anything off of them. Last thing you want to do is stress them more.

Good luck.

I have hoop houses at one of my properties. I chose them because the winds can get very strong in the canyon. They hold up better in the wind.

The leaves will bounce back....However that standing water Is Def a big issue. It could drown the roots so I hope for your sake it drains soon.
