Tropical Storm Kirk is slated to produce heavy rainfall over several Caribbean islands as it makes landfall later in the week, according to current predictions.
In an 11 a.m. update on Sept. 27, the U.S. National Hurricane Center (NHC) said Kirk, which weakened before strengthening again back into a tropical storm, is about 45 miles north-northeast of Barbados and 130 miles east-southeast of Martinique.
