Video shows Harvey flood victim playing a somber tune on a piano inside his flooded Texas home

Aric Harding, whose Friendswood, Texas, home was flooded in the wake of Hurricane Harvey returned to gather some belongings. He sat for a moment to play a tune on his piano, as floodwater surrounded him.

The video was posted on Instagram on Tuesday, and has since been viewed more than 10,000 times.

The worst of Hurricane Harvey was over by Thursday, August 31, nearly a week after Harvey made landfall as a Category 4 hurricane, but recovery from the rain and flooding in Texas and Louisiana is expected to take months.

Harding was one of many Texans who returned home this week to get their first look at Harvey's devastation.
