I researched cell service where I am relocating and was surprised. AT&T (The Death Star) was at the top, but because they do not have the worst service. Verizon was next, followed bu T-Mobile and Sprint (bought by T-Mobile). I searched out the towers, by the way, are NOT owned by the service provider. There are three companies that bought the tower and equipment and lease time on it. That is the reason Verizon was #2, lousy tower locations. There is no mandate that they supply service, good or bad, strictly profit. I am glad I do not invest in communications, they are bottoming out. The COVED-19 is over taxing their systems, a people are jumping services to try and stay connected. I read too many trade journals and websites!
After being hit in a head on collision, I fear driving, not because of my capabilities but the morons that are on the road. And, around here, there is no law enforcement.
As for the weather alerts, I called in a hail report, pea sized but lots, They did not see it on their radar. So much for technology.
