See here, the centre of the storm has moved West North West in the last few hours. Visually it appears that the storm's center is in line with Tobago's latitude.

In view of the impending weather conditions due to the approaching Tropical Storm, NP wishes to advise the public that the Company has taken all necessary steps to prepare for the likely impact of the weather system.
Contingency measures have been implemented to ensure a steady and consistent supply of liquid fuels, liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) and jet fuel. Therefore, motorists are encouraged to maintain their normal fuel purchasing patterns and avoid panic-buying which will only serve to cause fuel shortages at the pump.
The Company's operations at its Piarco and Crown Point Terminal facilities are equipped with an adequate supply of jet fuel, with Service Station deliveries of all liquid fuels set to continue as scheduled, to the extent feasible, and Dealers have been advised to maximize their storage capacity to mitigate any shortages ahead of the advancing weather system. Furthermore, the LPG plant operations will continue as normal, with systems in place to prevent any disruption to supplies.
In a coordinated effort, NP’s HSSE personnel and Maintenance teams have secured its Tank Farm, Lube Oil Blending Plant and LPG facilities, with the Maintenance and HSE teams poised to quickly respond to emergency requests across our Service Station network. Moreover, NP’s continued liaison and close interactions with the disaster preparedness and emergency management authorities throughout this evolving situation, will allow us to enhance our responsiveness to changing conditions, which could potentially impact our deliveries.
As we continue to closely monitor the system, we will ensure that the Country has a reliable and continuous supply of fuel, with Service Stations remaining open to the extent possible, without compromising the safety of their workers.
NP will continue to closely monitor the situation and advise the public where necessary.

We urge citizens to remain vigilant and to heed the warnings and alerts from the Office of Disaster Preparedness and Management (ODPM), the Ministry of Rural Development and Local Government and the T&T Meteorological Services.

Noticing that too, but the storm visually looks like it's moving more northward.

So we getting hit, definitely will get some winds and rain but Tobago will face it worse than us.

Tropical Storm Warning #6 - Orange Level
Tropical Storm Tue, Jun 28, 2022 8:00 PM to Wed, Jun 29, 2022 5:00 PM

At 8:00 am this morning, the centre of Potential Tropical Cyclone Two was located near 9.5ºN latitude 56.5ºW longitude or about 530 km East of Trinidad. The system is moving toward the west near 23 mph (37 km/h), and a westward or west-north-westward motion is expected for the next few days. On the forecast track, the system will pass near or over portions of the southern Windward Islands tonight. As a result, Trinidad and Tobago remains under a Tropical Storm Warning. A Tropical Storm Warning means that storm conditions are likely over the warning area within 36 hours. Periods of heavy to intense showers and/or thunderstorms are likely, which can result in rainfall accumulations in excess of 100 mm. Gusty winds in excess of 70km/h can be expected. These wind gusts are capable of breaking tree branches, displacing unsecured roofs and loose outdoor objects, and can even topple over unhealthy trees. The risk of landslides/landslips is likely in areas so prone and sea conditions can become occasionally rough. The next update will be issued at 11am.
