Alternate hurricanes

Sorry if this is a bit ASB. I was just wondering, what if a major hurricane in the past had occurred differently (more/less powerful, different track)? Here are a few suggestions for debate (feel free to come up with others):

1938: The Long Island Express veers about 40-60 miles to the west, hitting New York City head-on.

1969: Hurricane Camille hits New Orleans.

1992: Hurricane Andrew does more damage to Miami.

2005: Hurricane Katrina is a Category 5 storm when it makes landfall.

2005: Hurricane Rita hits Houston as a Category 5 storm, as was initially predicted.
 
Hurricane Hazel had a huge impact on building standards here in Ontario (for example, you can no longer build below the top of a river bank) so if it had missed us, and a future hurricane had hit us, the results could be quite different.

I was also in PEI during hurricane Juan, and the following "white Juan", but if those had never happened I dont think there would have been much difference.
