All of the Gulf coast states are effected now. Once the Gulf stream picks up on the oil it will impact most every coastal state on the east coast, plus Nova Scotia ,Canada, then we can expect it to effect Norway and the British isles by this time next year. The recirculating currents from West Africa will bring it back again with one of the tropical waves next fall. This spill will change the world as we knew it. BP does not have enough money to withstand the economic fallout that this spill will bring.
