Event narrative (NOAA)
A Bastrop woman was swept away in her car as she attempted to drive through the Cedar Creek crossing at Lower Red Rock Road, just off FM304 southwest of Bastrop. She called police at 0525CST to say that she had driven into deep water and the car was beginning to flood. She was rescued by emergency personnel but died shortly afterward at the Smithville hospital.
