Light rain, mist and fog are with us for the morning commute, but so far those elements don't seem to be adversely affecting traffic.

Light rain, mist and fog are with us for the morning commute, but so far those elements don't seem to be adversely affecting traffic.

We do have a few slow spots, but nothing to major. Look for brake lights to come on northbound Hwy. 169 from Anderson Lakes Pkwy. to Hwy. 169. Look for a crash on the merge from northbound Hwy. 169 to Hwy. 101.

Northbound 35W is seeing a tiny slow down approaching the Minnesota River bridge, but Cedar Avenue is moving very well from 35E up to Crosstown.

Southbound 35E is crowded from Hwy. 36 down to 94. Westbound Hwy. 36 has pockets of slowing from 35E to 35W. That drive will take 8 minutes.

It's not too bad on southbound 35W from Lexington Avenue to Hwy. 280. That is 12 to 14 minutes.
