Good morning commuters and shoppers.

It's cold and snowy out there and the roads are slick so take it easy out there whether you are going out or just coming in from overnight shopping.

Traffic levels are light right now, but things are busy near some of the malls, including Rosedale and Ridgedale.

I'll be live blogging as I keep tabs on the roads and rails this morning, and letting you know where you will encounter delays and problems. I could use your help, too.

If you see any congestion, delays, accidents or issues on the roads, send an e-mail to drive@startribune.com or a tweet to @stribdrive.

It's frigid out there, and it will be cold all day. According to Paul Douglas, it will be cloudy, breezy and maybe a high of 28 degrees. Currently, there are flurries falling and a windchill of -5 degrees.
