Apparently they use drones to survey cell towers. Article after Harvey has some mention of drones:

They do have portable cell sites/towers they can bring in to areas temporarily. No idea how that works or what capacity they have. I often hear how text messages often get through better during disasters than voice. So if anyone needs to contact someone, text is the way to go.
