Socrates Lozano works as a Photojournalist for Scripps and was in Texas covering the storm when he himself had to be rescued. 

Lozano was staying at a hotel in Port Arthur, Texas, when all the sudden the flood waters began to rise quickly.  

Lozano said it only took moments for the water to go from just a few inches to chest deep. 

Lozano's hotel was surrounded by flood water for more than 12 hours before getting rescued Wednesday afternoon.

And of course, he streamed his rescue live on Periscope:
