MCS's and Tropical Cyclones

This is a quote from the NWS New Orleans forecast discussion:
"ONE LAST NOTE...NOT TOO CRAZY ABOUT THESE MCS'S SPILLING INTO THE GULF
WATERS THIS TIME OF YEAR...ESPECIALLY WHEN WATER TEMPS ARE AROUND 80."
We need to be watching to see if any of these squall lines make it out into the gulf and persist. Remember Hurricane Danny a few years back? It formed from a line of severe storms that moved through Louisiana and persisted offshore. I believe Alicia formed this way as well.
