Alpha Storm Central was the first thing I heard this morning.
My little emergency radio found the station in the midst of all the static after Hurricane Matthew.
I am so grateful that it can be powered by solar panels, rechargeable batteries, or a hand crank.
Right now, it is using the battery power, but I will place it in the window for sunlight now.
However, earlier, when I was searching for normalcy, I found Shark and Monty Jett, on the air and sending sound waves of hope and music.
I responded.
0809:
Thanks for being out there.
I do not have a smart phone, but i do have an emergency radio.
Your lifeline is keeping me sane here in midtown Savannah.
0843:
faustina of midtown again.
Are you both fans of west side story?
Nice names!
Very blustery here.
No power since about 1 AM this morn.
Thank God for gas so i can still make coffee.
My many thanks to Alpha Storm Central, otherwise known as Alpha Media Savannah-Hilton Head.
They broadcast here on five stations:
WFXH-FM Rock 106.1 (studio concert with Michael!)
WGCO-FM 98.3 Hank FM
WRWN-FM Rewind 1079
WUBB-FM BOB 106.9
WXYY-FM G 100.1
WHHW-AM 935 The Island
Believe me, your lifeline during the aftermath is greatly appreciated.

Please note:
As I did not have power, I could not have made the post on the date that I wrote the text messages.
However, it was very important that I use the date of my text messages.
Thank you for understanding.
Monty Jett has died of a heart attack.
He was 76 years old.
The celebration of his life will be on Hilton Head.
I will always remember his voice during Hurricane Matthew, helping me hold my sanity.

Here's the obituary for Monty Jett.
Of course, as a radio personality, he used as alias rather than his real name.
Of course, as a Junior, he had to have a nickname to distinguish him from his father.
