I tried searching old threads on storage, but did not see this mentioned. The classic method for storing a popup outside over the winter was to let the jack all the way down to leave the popup tilted so rain / snow would run off the top. If you let the jack on a TM all the way down this would angle the lower shell toward the jack and water would run toward the shell seal. So, for outside storage - do you angle toward jack, away from jack, or just keep level? - Bob

Both roofs of our 2619 slope to their respective ends when closed so we leave it level when we store it outside.

We keep our TM lower in the back to keep rain water from seeping under the front shell seal while stored in our driveway. I would guess that the tongue is about 6" higher than level.
