Something else to consider here as well...
The area north and northeast of Dallas is a significant cotton-producing area. At least, that's my understanding.
Right now, the cotton is in bolled out and harvest should be starting soon.
With the wind and rain, I suspect that a fair amount of the cotton crop (in that area) could be damaged.
Combine that with Mississippi's cotton losses due to Katrina and I wonder if we will see an increase in certain kinds of clothing?
