Mid-rush hour commuters are running into few problems on the roads at this hour. Things are moving near the posted speeds except in a few spots.

One of those is southbound 494 from the Fish Lake Interchange down to just south of Rockford Road. Speeds begin to pick up at Rockford down to the Crosstown.

Southbound I-35 is seeing the usual congestion from Maryland Avenue to downtown St. Paul. Still, it's only 12 minutes from Little Canada Road to the capitol interchange.

Eastbound 94 sputters from Albertville to the Crow River, but picks up the pace east of Hwy. 101. It's 20 minutes from County 37 to the split.

A new wreck just reported on southbound Hwy. 169 at Cedar Lake Road ruins the perfect slate. Look for the wreckage on the right shoulder.

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.
