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.

The Gulf water gets shallow closer to land providing less fuel for storm. That is why they typically lose strength just before land fall. Maybe the cooler water emptying near delta provides less fuel too.

There’s also a lot of fertilizer runoff in the river.
That just strengthens the hurricanes before they turn east.

Katrina passed through three Louisiana Parishes before it hit Mississippi: Plaquemines, St. Bernard, and St. Tammany.

The river warms up the further south it goes.

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.
You seem to be underestimating Our Lady of Prompt Succor. She saved New Orleans from Packenham and the invading Red Coats and she blocks those hurricanes better than the Saints offensive line!

Alright idiots there are two things at play here. Too much attention is given to where the eye makes landfall. If you know anything about hurricanes you know that the northeast quadrant packs the biggest punch as far as tornadoes, heavy rain, and length of heavy rain. The wall of the eye brings the strongest winds and storm surge. Also to the northeast is where the storm turns as is ushered out by fronts passing in from the west.
Katrina devastated NOLA but MS took a pretty damn big punch. I believe it was still a Cat 1 by the time it went over Starkville. From talking to boomers I've heard the only thing that saved them from heavy damage was Camile. That storm was fresh in the mind of architects who were around when many of the buildings were built.
