Market context

U.S. Gulf Coast counties/parishes are those along TX, LA, MS, AL, or FL that border the Gulf of Mexico. Yes if any such county/parish is placed under a Tropical Storm Watch or Tropical Storm Warning by NHC/NWS during the window, as reflected in official NHC advisories or the NWS U.S. Warnings map. Offshore‑only marine zones without a county/parish designation do not qualify.
