Snowgoing on metro roads

The light snow, heavy at times in places, has turned the roads greasy, and in turn has led to numerous spinouts and crashes.

The light snow, heavy at times in places, has turned the roads greasy, and in turn has led to numerous spinouts and crashes.

The intersection of 694 and 252 might be dubbed the danger zone. There have been at least four wrecks there this morning, including the latest on eastbound 94 at 252. The left lane is blocked.

Closer to downtown Minneapolis, you'll find a spinout on the right shoulder of northbound 94 near 7th Street.

The State Patrol is on the scene of a two-vehicle wreck on northbound Hwy. 100 at 66th Street in Richfield.

And beware of slick spots on the lesser-traveled roads. Snow is starting to stick.
