There’s no discounting the severe flooding and destruction Hurricane Harvey left in its wake Monday and as thousands of Texas deal with the aftermath, Twitter users have lightened the mood in a way only they could: with memes.

Harvey made landfall the night of Friday, Aug. 25, as a Category 4 storm and folks used the most famous Harvey they knew, comedian Steve Harvey, to inspire their memes.
