Regardless it shouldn't affect the EAST COAST because you guys have ports in NY and TX.
Unfortunately, most items shipped from a given part of the world go to a particular area of the country... the closest. From there, they are either trucked or trained.
Since most arfs are coming from the "far east" most come to the west coast ports. Maybe, they will start sending things through the formerly U.S. owned Panama canal to TX, but until then, we are all affected.
