St. Michael Residents Should Expect Tough A.M. Commute

The morning commute could be complicated by some light flurries and accumulation, which could create black ice and some slow going on major roadways.

If it sounds like a broken record ... it's a Minnesota winter.

It might be wise to get out and on the road a little bit earlier this morning, as the sleet and freezing rain we experienced Sunday is set to switch to some accumulating snow Monday morning, making for a tough drive.
