This call that came over the scanner tells it all: "Tell MnDOT this area is glare ice."

The area in reference is on southbound Hwy. 100 at Benton Avenue where a crash involving a few vehicles is residing on the right shoulder.

We also have an injury crash on southbound Hwy. 100 south of 394 near Cedar Lake Road.

Northbound 494 at Hwy. 55 is slick, too. One vehicle landed in the center median. There is word of a second vehicle that also spun out in the area. Southbound traffic slows as drivers take a peek at the action.

Look out for a stalled vehicle blocking the ramp from northbound 494 to the Crosstown.

In Bloomington, the third spin out or crash on westbound 494 this morning comes at 24th Avenue.
