A wreck on westbound 494 at 24th Avenue has cleared so all lanes are now open.

For the moment, we are incident free on the system and traffic is moving fine.

The pavement is wet, but look out for isolated slippery spots as temperatures are just above the freezing mark in the Twin Cities.

To the north, some roads are glazed over with ice, so take it easy if you're heading up toward St. Francis, Hinckley, Brainerd and points north and west.
