Two vehicles are in the ditch on westbound Hwy. 610 at Hwy. 169. It's icy in the area so slow down.

The worst conditions appear to be on northbound 35 in Lakeville. The stretch between County Road 2 and 185th St. is littered with spinouts.

Things continue to crawl along on many highways, including 94 between the downtowns, 35E in both directions heading into downtown St. Paul, and 694 in both directions from 35E to Hwy. 252.

Hwy. 252 is seeing heavier traffic than normal. Drivers who use 169 might have opted for 252 since Hwy. 169 is quite tight from 109th Avenue down to the Crosstown.

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.
