Every job my company had near the gulf coast shut down for at least a week. There are roughly 5000 people where I work. Multiply that by 10 just for our company alone and yes it has an impact. I would say that at least a third of the U.S. population lives within 70 miles of the gulf of Mexico coast. Not to mention up the east coast of Florida. Yes it will have an impact.
