Kirk is moving to the west at 14 mph. https://twitter.com/WeatherNation/status/1043524427315441665 The forecast maintains Kirk as a tropical storm as it travels westward across the Atlantic. There is the risk of land impact by mid-late next week as Kirk moves toward the Lesser Antilles in the Caribbean.
