Yes. It is not unusual for a company to refuse to accept a new risk once a hurricane is in the Gulf of Mexico or within the boundaries of 80 Degrees West Longitude and 20 Degrees North Latitude. Also the Texas FAIR Plan Association and the Texas Windstorm Insurance Association stop writing policies after there is a hurricane within the Gulf of Mexico.
