Fortunately, from what I've read, it doesn't have deep warm water in its path, which should prevent any explosive intensification. But it still looks a lot more organized than it did a few hours ago.

Yea, starting to look like a real tropical something. Might get a little stronger, but you’re right water temps are (relatively) cool in front of it so it can’t do a Charlie. Might (probably will) rain like heck tomorrow.
Galveston Bay here, so I can give yall good reports.
Deep warm water is very beneficial to a storm that is stalling. Edouard is moving slowly but steadily.
It’s not as if it can sit over waters which it will upwell and provide coooler water to feed on. There is no cooler water it can get before landfall. Water depth at this point doesn’t matter.
The storm looks a whole lot more healthy than it did this morning, although the NW quadrant doesn’t quite have the convection to give it the classic hurricane image. But this morning the whole W/2 looked like crap and it’s much more impressive now.
