supporting working parents. it's one reason why i'm such a strong supporter of comprehensive immigration reform. we will increase our economic growth and tax base. >> and right now, our sarina fazan is in the clinton. watch for that at 6:00 tonight. and you're looking live at video from just moments ago of action air 1 over the scene of that sink hole on mosaic's property in mulberry. it appears that the sink hole is getting bigger. this as we just got back the test results of the groundwater in the area. >> we have been following this story since it broke. ryan raiche has been looking into the test results of the groundwater in the area. >> reporter: yeah, guys. i would say the concerns for the people are evolving as we did get that first wave of testing results in this afternoon. the company that performed the test, ect, says the nine wells they tested back on monday all tested with a normal readings. some people, it is putting them at ease. others are having trouble believing it and probably always will. that compy, individual homeowners today. and they should actually get the letters by the end of business today. keep in mind, we are in the early stages here. more than 70 people have requested tests. and what we are finding is people are struggling to believe the results. whatever they may be because mosaic hired the company. >> is it hard to believe the results. >> yes, it is. here we are, the poor folk, have to rely on them to wonder if they are accurate tests that are coming in. >> reporter: all right. so another issue here is that it could take months if contaminated water ever -- if it ever flows past this site to reach private wells. so these people may have to retest month after month after month. now, something that we will be talking about at 5:00 is this testing company. we met with the and asked them point-blank, why should people believe you if company said point-blank, we or would risk losing our license. this is our integrity at stake. we wouldn't do that. guys, one more thing. there's been a lot of outrage towards this investigation, towards the handling of it. some lawmakers calling for a full investigation. we just got a statement from governor scott's office saying briefly here, we will hold all responsible parties accountable for their actions and directed the department of environmental protection to expedite the investigation that began a month ago. we will have more about that at 5:00. >> thank you, ryan. also breaking today in the st. pete storm water mess, the mayor has now put the water resources director, steve levitt on unpaid leave. and gibson unpaid administrative leave. the mayor will address the city council tomorrow on an independent review. management study of water resources in the

that was captured on closed circuit tv. the fbi says that the man found sidewalk in new york city. they took a bomb out and then took off with the bag. that bomb did not go off, but one bomb did nearby. now the new york police department says these men are just witnesses. they're not considered to be suspects. let's take our first look at weather. looking live outside right now. it looks like there's a little trouble over on the bridge on the sky way. it looks like it is sunny there. shay, it was just raining at our studio across james. >> yes. a few isolated storms out there right now. but you can also see as we're looking over south tampa that we have dark skies. it depends where you're at. most of pinellas county is looking nice and dry at the moment. but as we zoom in here around hillsborough county, we do have heavy downpours coming down near north dale and the tar pin area. this is to the east of west chase. up and down the veterans. 4 and east of i-75 around valrico, did you see that lightning strike live, this is south of brandon, also into the pleasant grove area. and like i mentioned, around valrico and into seffner. so it's not widespread. but certainly touching some of the higher populated areas. and some of our major roads through hillsborough county. also into polk county, we have a little bit of rain across i- 4. but, again, this is pretty isolated rain overall for our area. and temperatures have pretty hot and steamy today as a result of the lack of rain. 90 degrees in zephyrhills and brandon. brooksville at 90. 91 in lake wales. the heat is on. we will continue to see isolated showers and storms here tonight. and i'll help you to time out the showers and storms for tomorrow if you're interested in a round of golf or maybe going for a jog, i'll help you time that out coming up. >> thank you, shay. we've got brand-new look today, our first look in fact at the ferry that will take tampa to st. petersburg. >> the video that you see behind us is a promotional video from the company that will run the ferry. nicole grigg explains why it could only be here for a short time. >> reporter: the cross bay ferry will test the waters in tampa bay come november 1st. >> i'm actually really excited. >> reporter: helen lives in tampa and hates the drive to st. pete. >> the one reason that i don't like going to st. pete is because of the commute and the traffic is and all >> reporter: tampa and st. pete hoping the ferry will change that mind-set. >> i feel it's super convenient. >> reporter: the one and only ferry will be here next month and will do test runs starting the first week of november. >> this is the vessel. >> reporter: in a press meeting today, we found out that the ferry will take 150 people from downtown tampa near the convention center to downtown st. pete. it will be a 50-minute ride. not only is this a pilot program, we're also learning only going to be seasonal, meaning it only operates six months out of the year. that's why critics are asking why four local governments are spending so much money for this test run. but dave scott with citizens for high speed ferries says this test will give them the data. >> we can decide do we extend service? do we add boats? do we add terminals to pick people up. >> reporter: the ferries will cost $10 for adults, $8 for kids. and for the now, i'm nicole grigg. thanks, nicole.

pastors, many of them african- american. and everyone is talking about and how he repeatedly tossed around the n word as he talked about how african-americans have tried to become successful. ultimately king says he would take the system apart and create a whole new system. trump is weighing in on the police killing as well in tulsa, oklahoma. >> and this young officer, i don't know what she was thinking. i don't know what she was thinking. but i'm very, very troubled by that. i'm that. and we have to be very -- we have to be very careful. >> okay. after that, trump and mike pence, they moved on to toledo for a rally there. you have a look how tight the race is getting at this point. >> it seems every day there is a new poll out, something else telling us which candidate in the lead. we have suzanne mcmanis with us today. it is interesting to continue forth. >> absolutely. the key numbers are what is the expected electoral college vote that each candidate would get if the election were today. and you see for clinton-kaine, it is 200. for trump, 164. but neither has reached the magic 270 that you have to get. >> right. >> to get elected. you have all of these gray states that are toss-ups, including the biggest prize of all which >> uh-huh. >> and these states are changing almost every day. what overall this shows is that the race is tightening. in our state, for example, is a statistical tie between hillary clinton and donald trump. the same is true in some of these other gray states. but as soon as the polls flip, and it moves solidly in one direction or another, then it will bece red or blue and those numbers change. >> yeah. >> all right. one you that might relate to more. more people are ready for the election to be over than they are excited about it. that's even if their person inwiths. they decided to ask voter it's they were happy about the contest so far. here are the results. 57% are frustrated. 55% disgusted. 31% interested. and only 10% said that they are excited. a little later, we will dive into what it will take for hillary clinton or donald trump to walk away with the first presidential debate which is on monday, next week.

those scattered showers and storms. but most of this rain is moving through from the northwest to the southeast. so right around chevalle, you will get heavy rain coming through. it is hit and miss across most of the area. but hillsborough county is getting the majority at the moment. around mango, seffner, this is right where the i-75 and i-4 the bulk of the thunderstorms have been a little farther south in hillsborough county closer to -- to the river view area. so in polk county, we've got a couple of -- or a couple of heavier downpours as well. again, this is not widespread across the
