Good morning commuters.

Our streak of two straight days of nice dry roads has come to an end, and this morning's drive could be a tough one.

Roads are wet with areas of snow cover and slippery spots. Ramps, bridge decks and lesser-traveled roads are slick.

With that, there have been a number of spinouts and crashes already.

Three in progress include:

A crash blocking the left lane on westbound 494 at 34th Avenue.

Northbound 35E at County Road E.

It’s too soon to tell how much the immigration crackdown is to blame.
