NPR: Here's a timeline of the catastrophic Texas floods.
Quick action by Texas summer camp led to timely evacuations ahead of flood
Despite an absence of warning by local authorities, [Presbyterian Mo-Ranch Assembly] camp officials acted quickly on their own, relocating about 70 children and adults staying overnight in a building near the river. With the kids safe, camp leaders including President and CEO Tim Huchton were able to avoid the catastrophe that hit at least one other camp near Hunt, where the 500-acre Mo-Ranch is located.

This is why you never wait for an official warning or order. If things look bad, go. Worst outcome of that is a little inconvenience if nothing ends up happening. Far better than the alternative. Same with the fires we have here.
