6:10 a.m. update: Wreck on 694 in White Bear Lake

The only snag on the system at this hour is a fender bender on the right shoulder of eastbound 694 at Hwy. 61 in the Vadnais Heights/White Bear Lake area. That is in a tough spot just under the railroad bridge, so use caution as you pass by.

The only snag on the system at this hour is a fender bender on the right shoulder of eastbound 694 at Hwy. 61 in the Vadnais Heights/White Bear Lake area. That is in a tough spot just under the railroad bridge, so use caution as you pass by.

I-694 is down to two lanes in each direction between East River Road and Hwy. 252. No big delays yet, but traffic levels are building.

A crash on eastbound Hwy. 10 at Foley Blvd. has cleared. Traffic in the area is light, but if yesterday was any indicaiton, look for heavy traffic later this morning as motorists try to access Hwy. 610 to cross the Mississippi River and avoid the nightmares on 694.

On westbound 94 at Mounds Blvd., drivers are dodging construction cones that are rolling around in the lanes.

FILE -- A rent deposit slot at an apartment complex in Tucker, Ga., on July 21, 2020. As an eviction crisis has seemed increasingly likely this summer, everyone in the housing market has made the same plea to Washington: Send money — lots of it — that would keep renters in their homes and landlords afloat.

It’s too soon to tell how much the immigration crackdown is to blame.
