When I was living in Dallas many years go furing a toprnado I picked up my phone and fianally just laid it on the table. After 14 minutes I got dial tone. Thqt was from a step-by-step office. Later, when I lived in St. Louis, after a tornado I dialed repeatedly for a long distance call and aftrer 40 minutes it connected. I was served by a crossbar office there and it knocked you off after a number of seconds if it was unable to provide dial tone. A few months ago, I was unable to get a signal on my cell phone during a tornado warning for over an hour. I did not have access to a landfline phone at that tiome.
