A pair of accidents is slowing traffic on northbound 35W in the south metro. The first is at Hwy. 13 and the second is up ahead at Cliff Road. You will need 20 minutes from County Road 42 to Crosstown.

The left lane is blocked on eastbound 394 at General Mills Blvd. That's got traffic tied up back to near 494.

Two other troublespots:

Northbound Hwy. 169 near Excelsior Blvd. The left lane remains blocked.

Eastbound Hwy. 10, the left lane is blocked with a crash in Anoka.
