Been through a lot worse weather without all the advance warnings for days.

Weather emergencies has me thinking about off-grid and secure coms: Been
playing with Meshtastic. If you are too, "Signal Mtn Geek Router" is at the
house with line of sight to a lot of Chattanooga and beyond. Have intention
of adding it to a dedicated server (little ARM Linux box) to it to provide
some interfaces and services via the Python CLI code (kinda crunchy) or my
own. Had a few chats with actual people beyond radio checks. It reaches
(via 3-4 hops) Atlanta and Knoxville. I'm on the wrong side of the
"mountain" to reach Nashville.

My carry around node is a Lilygo T-Deck  "Muon"

https://meshtastic.org

The idea is off-grid coms for weather emergencies, remote camping, or
societal collapse.  On my list is to play with ATAK (ATAK-Civ) via
Meshtastic. Coolest thing I've seen in a while. Useful for first
responders, lost hikers, paintball, airsoft and insurrection.
