WI Hurricane Bret follows Harvey's path?

IOTL, in August of 1999, Hurricane Bret formed in the Gulf of Mexico and rapidly intensified into a Category 4 hurricane before hitting south of Baffin Bay as a Category 3 hurricane. It didn't cause much damage when it made landfall.

So, WI Bret instead hit Rockport as a Category 4, similar to Harvey in 2017, and followed the path that Hurricane Harvey would take ITTL?

Effects, anyone?

@Plateosaurus: Harvey in 2017 is what I meant...

The effects are probably somewhat less severe than OTL because the Houston area is that much less built up. If Bret catalyzes more government attention to disaster recovery/preparedness, you could see some butterflies during Katrina.
