Aside from a few patches of heavy fog in the outline areas, mostly in the northwest metro, commuters will find no problems on the roads at this hour.

Things are moving at the posted speeds in most places. You'll find a slight slow down on northbound 35E approaching Cedar Avenue, but that won't add any time to the drive.

The Drive will keep you up to speed with the latest on Twin Cities commuting.
