Did anyone on AT&T or an iPhone receive the test today? I believe it was 
supposed to happen at 2:18 EDT, followed by one on broadcast radio at 2:20 EDT.

I’m in CDT, so 1:18 and 1:20 p.m. CDT.

Message was heard on my desk radio at 1:21:35 p.m. CDT but as of the sending of 
this at 1:52 p.m. CDT, nothing on phones. I have an office full of AT&T iPhones 
and not a single one of them alerted.

FEMA says https://www.fema.gov/emergency-alert-test

"Cell towers will broadcast the WEA test for approximately 30 minutes beginning 
at 2:18 p.m. EDT. During this time, WEA compatible cell phones that are 
switched on, within range of an active cell tower, and whose wireless provider 
participates in WEA should be capable of receiving the test message. Some cell 
phones will not receive the test message, and cell phones should only receive 
the message once."

My wife, with a Sprint iPhone, received the test.
