My mother is north of Ruskin (just outside of Tampa) right now because of work. She is at a friend's house which is a recent built and hurricane rated. She said that they lost mobile phone service but is still able to communicate via text courtesy of Starlink and T-Mobile working out emergency text service.

They also lost internet service but power is still up at the house.
