I watch the TV show 9-1-1 on FOX and they had a tsunami that flooded peoples cars and houses. This was pretty much the scenario played out in the show. Person drowns from the flood and dispatcher on the line can't do anything. Phones also being waterproof now can last an hour+ underwater while the caller is already dead.

Cool timeline in this article though, attempt CPR after getting to her an hour and 20 minutes after she already drowned.
