(CNN) Pam Jones left her home in Friendswood, Texas, on Saturday so she could ride out tropical storm Harvey with her parents in nearby Dickinson. They came in through the garage, filling the Jones' home with about three feet of water and trapping the family upstairs, Jones said. The family waited for the Coast Guard to rescue them. But a volunteer rescue boat carrying a CNN crew found them first. "We were about to leave the neighborhood, but we heard your voice," CNN correspondent Ed Lavandera told Jones after aiding in the family's rescue.
