NEW YORK (AP) - Hurricane Irene's impact on retailers is similar to its effect on various states. Some got hit hard. Some didn't get hit at all. And although there are billions of dollars in losses, it will take time to fully assess the damage.
Home-improvement retailers, drugstores and grocers fared well as people from the Carolinas and up and down the Eastern Seaboard snapped up emergency supplies like water, batteries and sump pumps. Meanwhile, sales at department stores, clothing chains, movie theaters and hotels slumped during what is typically an important back-to-school shopping weekend for many of them.
Overall, some estimate that the retail industry lost about $1.3 billion in revenue over the two-day period, or 25 percent of what it normally would have made over the weekend. More will be known about how retailers fared on Thursday when more than two dozen major chains, including Target Corp. and Macy's, report their monthly sales from July 31 through Saturday. But the full impact of the storm may not become completely apparent for many weeks later.
