It's turning into a tough drive on 35W this morning. The third accident of the morning on southbound 35W at County Road 88. That's in addition to the wreck at County Road D that's blocking the left lane.

Things are inching along from County Road J all the way to Hwy. 280. Plan on 25 minutes. An earlier crash has cleared.

The other big slow spot is in the south metro on northbound 35E. A wreck off to the left shoulder at McAndrews Road has traffic backing up in the immediate area.

Watch for a wreck on southbound 169 at Minnetonka Blvd. has traffic stacked up from Hwy. 55.

On Hwy. 100, the southbound lanes are slow past Benton Avenue as folks gawk at a wreck on the right shoulder.

And look for a wreck blocking the right shoulder on southbound 35E near County Road 96 in White Bear Lake.

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.
