Do the cooler waters of the Mississippi River turn most storms?

I know it’s usually the Lows and Highs that steer it, but it seems most smaller hurricanes turn away from SE Louisiana at the last minute.
I’m just talking about the eye.
Gustov and Andrew are the only hurricanes I can remember hitting directly on The delta.
I’m sure there are others, but I can’t think of none. Katrina hit Miss. coast, not LA.

Yes when it’s a high river. Like not now

You should bring your hypothesis to the pinned Hurricane Sally thread. You will get some top notch data there.

They hate Cantore. They always swerve to avoid him.

Someone will be here shortly to say something like:
Even hurricanes don't want to come to shithole Louisiana. Hardee Har Har.
Personally, I just think we are lucky that the approach of a storm gives us the chance to have a Hurricane Party.

Everyone will say no but it probably needs to be studied. These models are off way too much for it to be a coincidence.

It wouldn't affect steering.
There might be a very small effect if river water is colder and stays on top due to being freshwater instead of saltwater. But that's also a tiny area near landfall.

There’s also a lot of fertilizer runoff in the river.

You've clearly never actually been in the Mississippi.

So how many can you think of?

Is this you trying to be funny or something. I know you really can’t be that stupid

There is absolutely no reason to study this. Gustav, Katrina, Isaac, the list goes on and on

A little storm called Betsy too
Camille might fit that as well

Uhh pretty sure Katrina only impacted New Orleans.

No, sea surface temperatures have more to do with intensity of the storm. Storm movement is based largely on positioning of nearby high and low pressure systems.

Dog the river gets up to 85-90 degrees in August

Wow. Your ignorant. The coast of Mississippi was flattened. We just didn't get the air coverage new Orleans did.
