<p>In times of darkness, even the smallest ray of light can lift your spirits.</p>
<p>That's what <a href="https://twitter.com/drehoops10_">Deandre Wilson</a>, a man from Austin, Texas, has given us. Wilson posted a video of himself dancing on Sunday while Harvey was blanketing his area with rain -- and he even incorporating the water into his moves. </p><div class="amp-ad-wrapper"><amp-ad data-ix-id="235233" data-slot="/6692/AMP" height="250" json='{ "useSameDomainRenderingUntilDeprecated": 1 }' layout="responsive" type="ix" width="300"></amp-ad></div>
<p>Honestly, we are impressed. </p>
<div class="amp-twitter-wrapper"><amp-twitter data-tweetid="901859534154723329" data-cards="true" layout="responsive" width="550" height="500"></amp-twitter></div>
<p>After Wilson's <a href="https://twitter.com/brasjion_/status/901863085543186432">cousin posted the video</a> with the caption, "Somebody get my cousin, he think he in 'Stomp the yard,'" others decided to join in on the fun. The result was a pretty epic dance battle via Twitter. </p>
<div class="amp-twitter-wrapper"><amp-twitter data-tweetid="901940584159608832" data-cards="true" layout="responsive" width="550" height="500"></amp-twitter></div>

<p>Each dancer brought their own unique spin to using the rain, and it's very hard to pick a favorite. </p>
<p>It might not seem like much, but many Twitter users commended Deandre for bringing about some small amount of joy into their lives during an otherwise stressful and scary time. </p>

<p>Move over singing in the rain, now it's all about dancing.</p>
