Storms become Hurricanes when the wind speed reaches a certain value. The Hurrican may then stall out or turn away from the US or any number of possibilities. Some actually have hit land twice. Usually a Hurrican will travel to the NorthWest direction but when they hit land, they turn and travel NorthEast. So some will hit land and turn and go back out to sea and then pick up speed and return.

The duration of a hurricane can vary depending on its size and speed.

How long does it take a level 1 hurricane to travel over land?
The forward motion of a storm is independent of its wind strength, but a storm's intensity will determine how long it remains a storm once it is over land. For "smaller" hurricanes and tropical storms, the forward motion is often largely due to the movement of air masses that it encounters. A large moving low pressure system can "pick up" a storm and accelerate it, and a large high-pressure ridge can sometimes almost completely stop a storm's forward motion.
