Best Answer

A hurricane that stays at sea will cause little to no damage. Although such a storm might not impact land directly it can still affect distant shores with large waves and rip currents. Eventually the hurricane will encounter wind shear, dry air, cold water, or some combination and will lose its characteristics as a hurricane and eventually dissipate or get absorbed by another storm system.
