Daily briefing: Quiet week continues

The quiet work week continues across most of the U.S. However, a bit of autumn showers will make their way into parts of the East and West. This, and our tropical update, are available at 5 a.m. ET in our daily briefing.

The high pressure that has been situated over the Midwest for the past couple of days will remain locked in place, producing another sunny and mild day for much of the East, South, Mississippi Valley and Midwest.

However, the WeatherRadar shows a weak storm system just off the Mid-Atlantic coast today, bringing increasing clouds and some showers to the I-95 corridor from Washington to New York. Showers and even a few thunderstorms will also be possible across Florida and along the Gulf Coast once more.

The western U.S. will also have to contend with its own set of showers, especially across parts of the Northwest and northern California. A few storms will be possible in the Rockies, too.

Everywhere else will be quiet and sunny. The TemperatureRadar shows today's highs will range from the 70s across the Northeast and the Great Lakes to the 80s throughout the central Plains, South and the Mountain West. Texas and the Southwest will be in the 90s, with a few triple digits in the Southwest.

The tropics are quiet this week. No development is likely over the next several days.
