The slick conditions are leading to a number of spinouts on metro area highways. The latest are on Hwy. 212 with one in the center median near Hwy. 101 and on the right shoulder at Mitchell Road in Eden Prairie.

A vehicle is blocking the ramp from Hwy. 36 to southbound 694 in Oakdale.

Northbound Hwy. 169 is quickly jamming up from Canterbury Road up to 494. Plan on 15 minutes for that trip.

The left lane is blocked with a spinout on northbound 494 at Orchard Road. That's near Minnetonka Blvd.
