How to plot rectangular footprint around existing random data?

This is the code which will generate random storm track length. Now, I have to plot just rectangtular footprint area around each storm track length. Here, storm track length will be the central width of the rectangle. The image below illustrates what I'd like to do.
Many thanks!!
N = 50; % Number of events
X = 50; Y = 50;
P1x = rand(N,1) * X; P1y = rand(N,1) * Y ; % initial point
L = lognrnd(2,0.7,[N,1]); % Sample track length
Theta = mod(normrnd(90,15,[N,1]),360); % Storm track bearing direction
dx = L.*cos(deg2rad(Theta - 90)); dy = L.*sin(deg2rad(Theta - 270));
P2x = P1x + dx; P2y = P1y + dy; % Final point
plot([0 X X 0 0],[0 0 Y Y 0]); hold on
plot(P1x,P1y,'ro'); plot([P1x P2x]',[P1y P2y]','-')
xlabel('X [km]'); ylabel('Y [km]');
xlim([-X/4 1.25*X]); ylim([-Y/4 1.25*Y])

N = 50; % Number of events
X = 50; Y = 50;
P1x = rand(N,1) * X; P1y = rand(N,1) * Y ; % initial point
L = lognrnd(2,0.7,[N,1]); % Sample track length
Theta = mod(normrnd(90,15,[N,1]),360); % Storm track bearing direction
dx = L.*cos(deg2rad(Theta - 90)); dy = L.*sin(deg2rad(Theta - 270));
P2x = P1x + dx; P2y = P1y + dy; % Final point
plot([0 X X 0 0],[0 0 Y Y 0]); hold on
plot(P1x,P1y,'ro');
plot([P1x P2x]',[P1y P2y]','-')
xlabel('X [km]'); ylabel('Y [km]');
xlim([-X/4 1.25*X]); ylim([-Y/4 1.25*Y])
%% Draw rectangles
Vx = [P1x P2x]' ;
Vy = [P1y P2y]' ;
t = 1./2 ;
% Loop to get normals
for i = 1:size(Vx,2)
N=LineNormals2D([Vx(:,i) Vy(:,i)]') ;
C = [[Vx(:,i) Vy(:,i)]+t*N ;
[Vx(:,i) Vy(:,i)]-t*N] ;
idx = boundary(C(:,1),C(:,2)) ;
plot(C(idx,1),C(idx,2),'b')
end
YOu can download the function LineNormals2D from the link.
