    Friend in Tampa reports same o same o for now. Gusts of winds and heavy spurts of rain, then pause (while it make the circle?) then repeat. Not any appreciable increase in last two hours. Said Tampa TV showing people walking on mud of Tampa Bay as the water as been sucked out.
    Best guess is the eye will pass them going north; on the east side of Tampa, and they will catch the deluge of rain from the backside swirl.
    Will talk to hm again around 10 CST.

    Finished corn.
    Put Halo auto inflation system on trailer.
    It’s quick but no where near 5 minutes install time, with torque wrench and socket/ratchets, I’d say 20 minutes, but no bruised/busted knuckle so I call it a win.

    I have the DD15 had been trouble free so far and has tons of pulling power. I have heard it is more reliable than the 16. Don't have any experience with the 16 so this is just MHO
