Keeping tabs on Monday's morning commute

Mainline roads are generally wet but the overnight dusting of snow has left some slippery spots highways. Beware for icy ramps and bridges. MnDOT lists metro area roads in fair conditions.

Good morning, commuters!

We can expect lighter-than-normal levels of traffic today as many people are off for the Christmas holiday. But for those who do have to head to the office use caution. Mainline roads are generally wet but the overnight dusting of snow has left some slippery spots highways. Beware for icy ramps and bridges. MnDOT lists metro area roads in fair conditions.

We have no crashes or incidents on the roads at this hour.

I'll be keeping an eye on the roads and rails this morning, reporting any delays or issues — and I will need your help.

If you see or hear about any congestion, delays or problems, e-mail drive@startribune or tweet @stribdrive.

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.

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