Keeping an eye on Monday's morning commute

While a little tardy, the snow that was forecast to begin falling overnight is just now arriving in the Twin Cities. That means roads are still generally dry, but that will be changing over the next few hours.

Good morning commuters.

While a little tardy, the snow that was forecast to begin falling overnight is just now arriving in the Twin Cities. That means roads are still generally dry, but that will be changing over the next few hours.

The early part of the commute should be fine, but look for deteriorating conditions as the morning goes on.

Meterologist Paul Douglas is calling for 1 to 3 inches of snow this morning and up to 10 inches of snow before the storm winds down on Tuesday. Get the shovels ready, and patience too. Give yourself extra time to get from Point A to Point B.

I'll be live blogging today's morning rush hour letting you know where you will find delays, congestion and problems on the roads and rails.

I could you use your help, too. If you see any issues on the roads, let me know. Send an e-mail to drive@startribune.com or a tweet @stribdrive.
