The forecast tracks I see on VentuSky are showing it moving further to the west between Texas and Louisiana.
Unfortunately, when a hurricane moves into the Gulf of Mexico, it makes landfall somewhere either in the USA or Mexico. I don't think I have ever seen one just dissipate over water, or turn around and head south and then out into the Atlantic.
Hopefully for everyone impacted the most it will strengthen to will be a category 1 storm.
