3. They thought they could leave in the morning but the storm moved in quicker than predicted.

and the bridge access washed out, the ferry had stopped running the night before and they were trapped. There may not have been enough money for gas to get far enough away so they waited until they were sure that the storm had not turned by then it was too late.

They interviewed a tow truck driver who was trapped during the storm. He usually got out with the last law enforcement because he stayed to make sure everyone who wanted to get out could, but again it came in earlier than predicted and the bridge access had washed out.
