Keeping watch on Thursday's morning commute

I'll be watching the metro area roads and rails this morning and letting you know where you will find problems and delays. I could use your help, too. If you see and issues, drop me an e-mail at drive@startribune.com or a tweet @stribdrive.

Good morning commuters.

It feels like January outside with temperatures in the single digits, but at least the roads are dry so it should be a nice ride to work or school.

The sun is expected to be out, so as we head into the middle of the morning rush hour there could be some sun-up slow downs for eastbound drivers.

We have one issue on the roads at this hour. A semitrailer truck is blocking the ramp from northbound 35W to westbound 694.

Make it a great day.
