2:03 pm
the middle of the screen is a woman that was washed away from her 4x4 that was trying to cross a flooded river. when police arrived, they saw a man and his son on top of the vehicle, but the woman had been washed downstream. the father and son were rescued by a nearby farmer. rescue crews had to use this heat-seeking camera to find where the woman was. it's hard to tell, but she's clenching to a branch in the middle of these floodwaters while the helicopter keeps an eye on her, and guides a rescue boat down river to pick her up. >> it's amazing. she was washed away by floodwaters and was able to end up grabbing something and holding on to it until rescuers got there. >> clinging for about an hour. rescuers, you see here, able to get her in the boat. she survived and was okay. imagine the helicopter once it located where she was, sort of just hung out in the air. >> yeah. just being those eyes in the air was key to this woman's survival, and to give you an
