Since I only have about 40 followers, I would appreciate as many boosts as possible as it is hurricane related. The Iphone 14 and above has the capability to send messages via satellite. You have to install IOS18 then swipe down from top right to get the utilities screen. You can then do a demo by touching the satellite icon. Evidently it only works if you do not have cell data or wifi available.

@intheseheels Thank you. We’re safe in our banquet hall for our community just south of Punta Gorda, Fl. Winds are about 45-50 mph. We’re very lucky as we have no flooding here and no indication so far of any major damage. Lights are flickering once in a while but still have it so far. We’re pretty well set with standby generator and emergency lights. I served Brats and German potato salad tonight, now I’m drinking a little bourbon.
