The FCC said in its latest report that about 16.9% of cell sites were still out of commission. This is about 2-4 million phone users.
The Milton Hurricane could impact 5-20 million cellphone users in Florida.
Yesterday, Starlink SMS is working on SpaceX and T-Mobile test devices. SpaceX is working hard to see about turning on SMS for Helen and (hopefully future) Milton Hurricane areas.
Emergency broadcast texts can be received on compatible T-mobile, ATT and Verizon phones. Phones able to receive 5G and some 4G phones.
SMS is working now to SpaceX and T-Mo test devices.
We are working hard to see about turning on SMS for Helen and (hopefully future) Milton Hurricane areas.
We have more orbital planes to deploy, so there are some gaps in coverage still.

The vast majority of smartphones already on T-Mobile’s network are compatible with this service already using the device’s existing radio. No extra equipment to buy. It just works.

Fear mongering over long term climate variability is a political opportunity that the mafia goons in government cannot pass by.
The response will probably win Trump the election. Yet his speeches are that climate change is nothing to worry about, and Project 2025 wants to get rid of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, whos job it is to monitor hurricanes, because its part “of the climate change alarm industry”. Its a messed up world 🙁
Get rid of NOAA, the Dept of Education, USPS, etc. and privatize it all by handing it to his goons. It’s been apparent the scheme has been in motion for just under a generation now. This is how top gain financial control of the masses, again.
